COMPLICATIONS OF TRANSSPHENOIDAL APPROACH FOR PITUITARY SURGERY
Keywords:
Macroadenoma, Non-functional, Transsphenoidal, pituitary tumorAbstract
This paper aims to study assessment complication Transsphenoidal pituitary surgery where 60 patients collected from different hospitals in Iraq, except for patients who underwent of the pituitary gland tumor. By relying on the electronic record in the hospital to know the immediate complications after pituitary surgery, the patients were divided into three groups Non-functional, Apoplexy, and Macroadenoma patient The main causes of early postoperative complications are hemorrhage in unremoved segments followed by the development of cerebral edema. Disruption of blood circulation in the hypothalamus with the development of hypopituitarism and the causes and nature of postoperative complications also depend on the severity of the patient's condition before surgery, the presence of concomitant diseases

It is used for prolactinomas. This method of treatment allows you to control up to 90% of all prolactinomas. There are drugs that are used to treat other adenomas, but they are appointed individually in each case by a board of several specialists.
Contraindications to operations are irreparable problems to the cardiovascular system and other internal organs that require correction
