Abstract: To evaluate the value of transsphenoidal surgery by endoscopy for resection of pituitary tumors. Method: Thirtytwo patients with pituitary tumour were treated with endoscopic transsphenoidal surgery. Result: Tumors were totally excised in 32 patients,and no complications were found except for cerebrospinal fluid leak in 2 cases. During 6 to 24 months′ followup,the function of endocrine in 30 patients resumed to normal, and the eye sight elevated in 6 cases. Conclusion: Endoscopic transsphenoidal surgery is a safe, simple, minimally invasive and effetive procedure for pituitary tumors.
