    1. Endoscopic Transsphenoidal Pituitary Surgery Dr.Saied Alhabash ENT Department –Red Crescent Hospital Neurosurgery Department-Damascus Hospital

    2. ESBS Endoscopic Pituitary Surgery is step 1 or 2 from learning curve of the ESBS(Endoscopic Skull Base Surgery). ESBS now is considered one of the most reliable routs for the treatment of some skull base tumors.

    7. Many surgeries in the world moves to the endoscopic rout

    8. Transnasal transsphenoidal endoscopic excision is a reasonable alternative to the traditional method of sellar mass excision. Analysis of transnasal endoscopic versus transseptal microscopic approach for excision of pituitary tumors. Higgins TS, Courtemanche C, Karakla D, Strasnick B, Singh RV, Koen JL, Han JK. Department of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, Eastern Virginia Medical School, Norfolk, Virginia 23507, USA.

    9. In our experience, fully endoscopic transsphenoidal surgery for functioning pituitary adenomas leads to a better endocrinologic outcome for noninvasive macroadenomas compared to the traditional microsurgical technique. However, morbidity with the endoscopic technique was higher in terms of the rate of postoperative CSF leaks. Fully endoscopic transsphenoidal surgery for functioning pituitary adenomas: a retrospective comparison with traditional transsphenoidal microsurgery in the same institution.

    10. Transsphenoidal pituitary surgery has evolved over the past several decades, because advances in technology have been the catalyst for minimally invasive surgeries. Less invasive approaches, such as the transnasal approach with endoscopic resection of tumor and the completely endoscopic .technique have less morbidity and a shorter hospital stay than traditional sublabial approaches. Continued follow-up is needed to confirm long-term benefits and similar recurrence rates. Comparison of techniques for transsphenoidal pituitary surgery.

    11. The results were comparable with those of the best microsurgical series regarding endosellar lesions, but tumor removal was notably superior when dealing with tumors having an extrasellar extension. The improvement may be explained by the excellent vision of the deep surgical fields due to the endoscope and by the extreme flexibility of the surgical trajectory, mainly due to the absence of the divaricator, giving access to the ramifications of the tumor, otherwise difficult to reach. The endoscopic versus the traditional approach in pituitary surgery. Frank G, Pasquini E, Farneti G, Mazzatenta D, Sciarretta V, Grasso V, Faustini Fustini M.

    12. An adequate exposure of the sellar, suprasellar, and infrasellar/upper clival regions can be achieved via a simple, direct endonasal approach. From a direct endonasal route, there is a preferential visualization of the structures contralateral to the approach. The endoscope affords a more panoramic view that extends the area covered by the operating microscope. Comparison between the microscope and endoscope in the direct endonasal extended transsphenoidal approach: anatomical study. Catapano D, Sloffer CA, Frank G, Pasquini E, D'Angelo VA, Lanzino G.

    13. The paraseptal transsphenoidal approach to the sella turcica using the telescope is at least as effective as the conventional transseptal approach using the operating microscope only. It provides a wide access to the pituitary fossa and an optimal vision of the critical areas. The absence of postoperative nasal packing improves significantly the comfort of the patient during the first postoperative hours.

    16. It is now accepted that Endoscopic Transnasal Transsphenoidal Hypophysectomy is a good choice for the the pituitrary adenomas even spread to the perisellar region because of:

    17. 1-The ability to see in many angles which makes the endoscope go to dead areas could not be accessible with the assistance of microscope, then the recurrence rate becomes lower with endoscope.

    20. 2-The ability of histological differnciation is very high with the new generation of cameras(HD) ,that make us to define the normal tissue .

    21. Mono CCD Three CCD

    22. 3-The complications are very rare specially which correlate with the nasal septum, because no need to translocate it ,or incise it.

    25. Why Endoscope Endoscope opens hidden parts The manipulation of endoscope is better than microscope The speed revolution of technology made magnificent picture with very high differnciation Minimally invasive

    26. ESBS Endoscopic Skull Base Surgery We can use the endoscope now to treat more complicated entities in the skull base like cordoma ,craniopharyngoma and petroclival cysts.

    27. Advantages Of ESBS Reduces the impact on the patient Lessens the morbidity Reduces the length of stay in many cases
