Neuroendoscopic surgery is the first treatment for most pituitary adenoma patients. Because transsphenoidal surgery exploits the nasal corridor and paranasal sinuses to reach the skull base, sinonasal trauma is a primary source of postoperative morbidity in many of these patients. The aim of this study is to determine the impact of endoscopic transsphenoidal pituitary surgery on nasal function using a numerical simulation and to compare the difference between two kinds of transsphenoidal approachese(single nostril approach and bilateral nostril approach)．
