Most pituitary tumors can be removed transsphenoidally. The approach is through the sphenoid sinus, one of the facial air spaces behind the nose. Rarely, a craniotomy is required, where the skull is opened to reach the tumor.
For non-secreting tumors, pituitary MRI scans are used to determine this. Some centers, such as Massachusetts General Hospital, have a special MRI machine in the operating room, which is used in patients with large tumors, to follow the progress of tumor removal during the operation.
