| dc.description.abstract | Dott and Guiot first pioneered the transsphenoidal route for pituitary tumors during the 1950s and 1960s, and the microscope was introduced for the procedure by Hardy in the 1970s. The microscopic transsphenoidal approach to pituitary tumors was further developed by Wilson, Weiss, Laws, and others and became the procedure of choice for pituitary tumors. The advantages, outcomes, and risks for this procedure are well established, and it has been an effective and safe method for treating pituitary tumors as well as other pathologies that occur in the sellar/suprasellar region (1, 4, 7, 13). | |
