PurposeEndoscopic endonasal transsphenoidal surgery (EETS) requires abundant collaborative work between neurosurgeon and ear, nose, and throat (ENT) surgeon. In low-volume centers, however, the surgery may be carried out completely and solely by a neurosurgeon. The current study evaluates the differences in both technique and complications in the approach to the sphenoid sinus for endoscopic endonasal approach (EEA) performed solely by a single neurosurgeon compared to collaborative effort…

A Comparison of Olfactory and Sinonasal Outcomes in Endoscopic Pituitary Surgery Performed by a Single Neurosurgeon or a Collaborative Team of Surgeons
TLDR
Better olfactory outcomes were observed in patients who underwent surgery performed by a collaborative team of a neurosurgeon and an ENT surgeon, showing the need for collaboration between neurosurgeons and ENT surgeons in endoscopic pituitary surgery.
Sellar Floor Reconstruction with and without Intrasellar Fat Packing after Endoscopic Resection of Large Pituitary Macroadenomas with Evident Intraoperative CSF Leak
TLDR
There is no difference in the incidence of postoperative CSF leak and clinical ESS among both groups, indicating that tight sellar floor repair is more important than packing the sellar cavity with or without fat graft.
Systematic review and meta-analysis of 3D-printing in otolaryngology education.
Prevention of csf leakage after endoscopic endonasal approach and effects of collaborative work
TLDR
Endoscopic Endonasal Approach (EEA) has been used frequently in recent years, especially for the sellar pathologies, and is still being used in clinical practice.

Variations of endonasal anatomy: relevance for the endoscopic endonasal transsphenoidal approach
TLDR
Although endonasal anatomical variations are frequent, they do not pose a relevant obstacle for EETA and require extra rhinological surgical skills, according to this prospective cohort study.
Endoscopic endonasal transsphenoidal approach in the management of sellar and parasellar lesions : alternative surgical techniques , results , complications ( Part II )
TLDR
Due to an improvement and refinement of the surgical procedures, the endoscopic endonasal transsphenoidal approach can be considered a good choice for the excision of the sellar and parasellar lesions.
Anatomical landmarks for locating the sphenoid ostium during endoscopic endonasal approach: a cadaveric study
TLDR
The sphenoid ostium could be localized medial to the superior turbinate between 1.5 and 3 cm above the supero-lateral angle of the posterior choana, within 1 cm of the midline and within 1% of the postero-inferior edge of the inferior turbinate.

TLDR
Excellent results with this method indicate that there is seldom need for a Caldwell-Luc operation as the state-of-the-art procedure in chronic recurring sinusitis, and the dependent larger sinuses usually heal without having been touched.

Endoscopic endonasal transsphenoidal surgery: experience with 50 patients.
TLDR
Postoperatively, all patients who had undergone endonasal endoscopic surgery had unobstructed nasal airways with minimal discomfort and more than half of the patients required only an overnight hospitalization.

TLDR
The history of endoscopy and its application in endonasal neurosurgery is reviewed from the first endoscope described by Philipp Bozzini to the First World Congress of Endoscopic Skull Base Surgery held in 2005 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
Endoscopic management of lesions of the sella turcica
TLDR
Endoscopic management of sellar lesions offers, not only the advantage of improved visualization, but also magnification, and a panoramic perspective of the important relationships of the sella turcica, and the advantages, over the operating microscope, which is traditionally used are discussed.

Perspectives on endoscopic transsphenoidal surgery.
TLDR
The authors describe the current endoscopic technique and elucidate the advantages and disadvantages of the pure endoscopic adenomectomy compared with the standard microscopic approach to sellar tumors.
