A simple and safe technique for the sublabial transseptal transsphenoidal approach to the hypophysis and parasellar region is described. With today's antibiotic therapy and hormonal replacement, plus the use of the operating microscope, the transsphenoidal route to the hypophysis has gained renewed interest among neurosurgeons and otolaryngologists. Each of the ...

Nasolabial cyst is a rare nonodontogenics, soft-tissue cyst occurring in the sublabial area and anterior maxillary region. The patient usually presents with a slowly enlarging asymptomatic swelling. They are usually diagnosed in early stages because of cosmetic problems. In our paper we report a nasolabial cyst of a 53-year-old man and discuss the diagnosis, differential ...

A subciliary incision may be associated with various complications of the lower eyelid when it is used during a total maxillectomy. The use of the transconjunctival incision instead is an alternative in suitable patients. The records of 17 patients were reviewed in whom a transconjunctival incision was used during total maxillectomy. These included 13 in whom the Weber-Ferguson incision was used, ...

The sublabial salivary glands were studied by morphometric methods in 68 healthy volunteers to establish possible changes related to age in those tissue components that are affected in Sj�gren's syndrome and connective tissue diseases (and which might stimulate Sj�gren's syndrome). There was an increase in the amount of connective tissue and intralobular ducts with age and ...
A dilemma presents itself to the otoneurologist and neurosurgeon when determining the least invasive surgical approach to giant cholesterol cysts (GCC) of the petrous apex of the temporal bone. These lesions can be diagnosed with a fair degree of certainty with imaging studies. Transmastoid and subcochlear approaches may be inadequate to access these lesions, and the transcochlear approach results ...

Venous air embolism (VAE) is a well known complication in procedures where the operative field is above the level of the heart. Acute pulmonary oedema after a large air embolus occurring during neurosurgery is also a recognized phenomenon. However, pulmonary oedema following repeated episodes of VAE in sublabial transsphenoidal (SLTS) surgery for pituitary adenoma has never ...
Melanotic neuroectodermal tumour in infancy is rare, mainly benign with little tendency to recur after excision or effective curettage. This pigmented neoplasm of neural crest origin occurring in infants before 1 year of age. The most common site of occurrence is the anterior maxillary alveolar ridge (70%), following by the skull, brain and mandible. The genital organ is the most frequent extra ...
Severe cardiovascular responses in the form of tachycardia and hypertension following nasal speculum insertion occur during sublabial rhinoseptal trans-sphenoid approach for resection of small pituitary tumours. We compare the effects of preoperative administration of clonidine (?-2 agonist) and atenolol (?-blocker) over haemodynamic response, caused by speculum insertion ...
Over the last few decades, the scientific literature has acquired over 100 publications on pituitary surgery. Most of these papers contain a brief historical review of the work of the pioneers who contributed to operative modalities (Landolt et al., 1996; Liu et al., 2001; Walker, 1951; Welbourne, 1986). Several have been only experimental explorations on cadavers, used on a few patients, but were ...
become the procedure of choice for pituitary adenoma resection. Compared to other approaches to the sphenoid sinus (transethmoidal, sublabial trans-septal, and trans-antral), the direct trans-nasal approach offers straightforward access to the pituitary fossa with minimal nasal dissection and a reduced incidence of dental and septal problems. Despite these advantages, ...

We reviewed results of the surgical outcome of pituitary tumors treated via the transsphenoidal approach between January, 1994 and January, 2010 at our institution. This data included 100 patients (124 procedures) treated through the sublabial transsphenoidal approach and 45 patients (54 procedures) treated through the endoscopic endonasal (bilateral nostrils) transsphenoidal ...
OBJECTIVES: To confirm the efficacy and safeness of the endoscopic endonasal transsphenoidal (ETS) approach in the treatment of sellar and parasellar lesions in children compared with the conventional microscopic transsphenoidal approach (CTS). STUDY DESIGN: Case series with chart review. SETTING: A. Gemelli - University Hospital - Catholic University of Sacred Heart - Rome. SUBJECT AND METHODS: ...
