Abstract

Purpose

Surgical experience is considered paramount for excellent outcome of transsphenoidal surgery (TSS). However, objective data demonstrating the surgical success in relation to the experience of pituitary surgery units or individual experience of pituitary surgeons is sparse.

Methods

Based on literature data, we have investigated the influence of experience with TSS for pituitary adenomas on endocrinological remission rates and on operative complications. The surgical experience was assessed by calculating the number of transsphenoidal operations per year.

Results

For TSS of microprolactinomas, mean remission rates were 77% in centers with < 2 operations per year for microprolactinomas, 82% with 2–4 operations, 84% with 4–6 operations, and 91% with > 6 operations. A yearly experience with more than 10 initial operations for Cushing’s disease (CD) warrants a remission rate exceeding 70%. Remission rates in CD exceeding 86% have only been reported for single surgeon series. Extraordinarily high complication rates were found in some series with < 25 yearly total operations for pituitary adenomas. Major vascular complications were less than 2% and revision rates for rhinorrhea usually < 2.5% in centers performing > 25 transsphenoidal operations per year.

Conclusions

We conclude that a center with experience of > 25 transsphenoidal operations for pituitary adenomas per year provides a high likelihood of safe TSS. Surgery for CD requires a particularly high level of practice to guarantee excellent remission rates. The endocrinologist has the unique opportunity to audit the surgical success by hormone measurement and to refer patients to neurosurgeons with proven excellence.

Notfall-TEP der Hüfte ist auch bei 90-Jährigen machbar

26.04.2024 Hüft-TEP Nachrichten

Ob bei einer Notfalloperation nach Schenkelhalsfraktur eine Hemiarthroplastik oder eine totale Endoprothese (TEP) eingebaut wird, sollte nicht allein vom Alter der Patientinnen und Patienten abhängen. Auch über 90-Jährige können von der TEP profitieren.

Niedriger diastolischer Blutdruck erhöht Risiko für schwere kardiovaskuläre Komplikationen

25.04.2024 Hypotonie Nachrichten

Wenn unter einer medikamentösen Hochdrucktherapie der diastolische Blutdruck in den Keller geht, steigt das Risiko für schwere kardiovaskuläre Ereignisse: Darauf deutet eine Sekundäranalyse der SPRINT-Studie hin.

Bei schweren Reaktionen auf Insektenstiche empfiehlt sich eine spezifische Immuntherapie

25.04.2024 Allergien und Intoleranzreaktionen Nachrichten

Insektenstiche sind bei Erwachsenen die häufigsten Auslöser einer Anaphylaxie. Einen wirksamen Schutz vor schweren anaphylaktischen Reaktionen bietet die allergenspezifische Immuntherapie. Jedoch kommt sie noch viel zu selten zum Einsatz.

Therapiestart mit Blutdrucksenkern erhöht Frakturrisiko

25.04.2024 Hypertonie Nachrichten

Beginnen ältere Männer im Pflegeheim eine Antihypertensiva-Therapie, dann ist die Frakturrate in den folgenden 30 Tagen mehr als verdoppelt. Besonders häufig stürzen Demenzkranke und Männer, die erstmals Blutdrucksenker nehmen. Dafür spricht eine Analyse unter US-Veteranen.
