Possibilities and limitations of microsurgery in patients with meningiomas of the sellar region
Abstract
Problems associated with the operative technique and operative results in 40 patients who underwent surgical removal of a meningioma in the sellar region are analysed. Attention must be paid not only to the possibilities and limitations of microsurgery but also to general aspects such as hypothalamic and pituitary function.
