MNGI-16. TREATMENT FOR TUBERCULUM SELLAE MENINGIOMAS: ENDONASAL ENDOSCOPIC TRANSSPHENOIDAL VERSUS TRANSCRANIAL SURGERY. A META-ANALYSIS OF COMPARATIVE COHORT STUDIES

摘要

BACKGROUNDTuberculum sellae meningiomas (TSMs) are a distinctive subgroup of meningiomas in the suprasellar space, accounting for 5%-10% of all intracranial meningiomas. Traditionally, these tumors have been excised through a variety of transcranial approaches (TCA). The endoscopic endonasal transsphenoidal approach (EETA) has been used recently to treat TSMs. A meta-analysis was performed to compare the complications and outcomes between EETA and TCA for TSMs with comparative cohort studies, in order to enhance our understanding of the current outcomes of EETA for TSMs before the techniques become more widely used.
