Endoscopic surgery for pituitary tumours and other skull base tumours
Endoscopic surgery for pituitary tumours and other skull base tumours is a minimally invasive technique that uses an endoscope (a thin tube with a camera on the end) to access the base of the skull through the nasal passages. This technique allows for the precise and safe removal of tumours, such as pituitary adenomas, avoiding large incisions and scars.
