AbstractBACKGROUNDThe role of expanded endonasal endoscopic surgery for primary and recurrent craniopharyngioma is not yet fully established.OBJECTIVETo report and evaluate our experience with the endoscopic endonasal approach (EEA) for the resection of primary and recurrent craniopharyngiomas.METHODSThis is a retrospective cohort analysis of 43 consecutive EEA procedures in 40 patients operated from September 2006 to February 2012 for suprasellar craniopharyngiomas. In 21 patients (48.8%) the disease was recurrent. We have assessed the surgical results, visual, endocrinological, and functional outcomes and resection rates in this patient cohort.RESULTSAt presentation, 31 (72.1%) patients had visual deficits, 15 patients (34.9%) complained of headaches, 25 patients (58.1%) had anterior pituitary insufficiency, and 14 (32.5%) had diabetes insipidus. Total resection was achieved in 44.2% surgeries, of which 77.3% were in primary lesions and 9.5% in recurrent lesions (P < .001). Vision improved in 92.6% patients and worsened in 2.3%. Complications other than vision were encountered in 25.6% including 9/43 cerebrospinal fluid leak, 2/43 meningitis. A total of 51.9% of patients with preoperative residual anterior pituitary function had new anterior pituitary deficiencies and 42.8% had new diabetes insipidus. There was no mortality. Six patients (14%) had recurrence of disease during the follow-up period (mean 56.8 mo), 5 of which required repeat surgery.CONCLUSIONThe EEA can be integrated in the overall management of both primary and recurrent craniopharyngiomas with good results; however, in our series recurrent surgery was associated with significantly lower rates of gross total resection.

Anterior Pituitary Insufficiency

SUMMARY Changes in response of the adrenal cortex to corticotrophin caused by the simultaneous intravenous administration of tri-iodothyronine have been studied in two patients with anterior pituitary insufficiency. Tri-iodothyronine caused increases in urinary excretion of ketogenic steroids and in plasma hydrocortisone. Blood eosinophils fell sharply. In addition, changes in sodium and potassium balance, and fasting blood sugar levels were observed which were consistent with increased activity of the adrenal cortex. Rapid changes in b.m.r., serum creatine and blood cholesterol were those known to be produced by tri-iodothyronine alone; so, to a large extent, was the increased negative nitrogen balance.
