Abstract

Endoscopic transnasal surgery for tumors in the sellar region has become popular across the globe. However, postoperative nasal outcomes related to endoscopic transnasal surgery have yet to be described in detail. Here, we introduce a modified microscopic-endoscopic bilateral transseptal approach for the surgical treatment of tumors in the sellar region. This technique yielded satisfactory postoperative nasal outcomes without any loss of the visual advantages associated with endoscopy. The modified microscopic-endoscopic bilateral transseptal approach described herein is a minimally invasive endoscopic transnasal approach and results in satisfactory postoperative outcomes in terms of nasal structure and olfactory function.
