Abstract

Background: Race and socioeconomic status are associated with disparities in outcomes across a variety of medical conditions in the United States. However, prior analysis of nationwide data showed no association between patient factors and outcomes in transsphenoidal surgery (TSS) for pituitary adenomas. Similarly, although hospital factors have been shown to be associated with outcomes in TSS, these factors were not associated with hospital charges. We hypothesized that both patient and hospital factors would be associated with outcomes and hospital charges in patients undergoing TSS for pituitary adenomas.
