Visual Outcomes after Endoscopic Endonasal Approach for Craniopharyngioma: The Pittsburgh Experience

Visual Outcomes after Endoscopic Endonasal Approach for Craniopharyngioma: The Pittsburgh Experience JOURNAL OF NEUROLOGICAL SURGERY PART B-SKULL BASE Stefko, S., Snyderman, C., Fernandez-Miranda, J., Tyler-Kabara, E., Wang, E., Bodily, L., Bilonick, R. A., Gardner, P. A. 2016; 77 (4): 326–32

Abstract

This series of patients has been published in the neurosurgical literature earlier this year, detailing multiple aspects of both the surgical technique and postoperative outcomes. Our aim in this series is not to revisit all the aspects of this publication, but rather to analyze more specifically the benefits of this procedure as it pertains to the preservation of neurological structures of vision-specifically the optic chiasm-and provide a more detailed analysis of visual outcomes in these patients.
