47
Q

Operative approach for pituitary (5)

  1. Vertical incision of septal mucosa of rt.nostril, at bone-cartilage junction
  2. Bilateral mucosal dissecion posteriorly, starts from the anterior edge of the bony septum
  3. Visualization of rostrum sphenoid sinus
  4. Removal of the bony nasal septum
  5. Removal of anterior wall of the sinus
  6. Coagulation of the mucosa of the sinus and removal of the sellar floor
  7. Coagulation & incision of the sellar dura
  8. Removal of the Macroadenoma
