Neurosurgical Centers and Pituitary Adenomas by Pituitary Adenoma Surgery

Zaid Mistry

Recent decades have seen a fast evolution in pituitary adenoma surgery. This study tries to ascertain the prevalent practise in several European neurosurgery hospitals. Methods list of qualified institutions that conduct surgery on pituitary adenomas was developed. 58 questions made up the survey. The departments were split into four sections for analysis: academic and non-academic, high volume and low volume, "primarily endoscopic/mostly microscopic practise," and geographic areas. Data were gathered from 254 departments throughout 34 nations. Pituitary adenomas were operated on annually at 108 centres. Over 100 adenoma procedures were performed annually at twenty hospitals. As of today, there are how many neurosurgeons conducting endonasal procedures. All residents helped endonasal procedures at 126 facilities, and all residents had endonasal procedures throughout their residency. The endoscopic technique was utilised at 141 centres. In 147 centres, regular pituitary board meetings were held. In 149 centres, non-functioning adenomas make up the pituitary burden. Most of the facilities in our survey do less than 100 operations for pituitary adenomas [1].
