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.
Pituitary tumors can manifest with signs and symptoms of pituitary hypofunction, hormone hypersecretion, or mass effect. Impingement on the chiasma by a pituitary tumor results in visual field defects, most commonly bitemporal hemianopia (Fig. 2).
