This retrospective study aimed to determine the necessity of intraoperative MRI scans following endoscopic endonasal pituitary adenoma surgery. The results show that for adenomas limited in the sellae and not invading the cavernous sinus, an IO-MRI scan is not necessary, but it is strongly recommended if there is any suprasellar and parasellar extension and/or cavernous sinus invasion.
There are previous reports investigating effectiveness of intraoperative magnetic resonance imaging (IO-MRI) in pituitary adenoma surgery but there is no clear data in the literature recommending when there is no need of intraoperative scan. This retrospective analysis was based on determining which patients does not need any IO-MRI scan following endoscopic endonasal pituitary adenoma surgery. Patients with functional or non-functional pituitary adenomas that were operated via endoscopic endonasal approach (EEA) between June 2017 and May 2019 were enrolled. Patients younger than 18 years old, patients who did not underwent IO-MRI procedure or not operated via EEA were excluded from the study. Hence, this study is designed to clarify if IO-MRI is useful in both functional and non-functional pituitary adenomas, functional adenomas did not split into subgroups. A total of 200 patients treated with pituitary adenoma were included. In Knosp Grade 0 - 2 group, primary surgeon's opinion and IO-MRI findings were compatible in 150 patients (98.6%). In Knosp Grade 3 - 4 correct prediction were performed in 32 (66.6%) patients. When incorrectly predicted Knosp Grade 3 - 4 patients (n = 16) was analyzed, in 13 patients there were still residual tumor in cavernous sinus and in 3 patients there were no residual tumor. Fisher's exact test showed there is a statistically significant difference of correct prediction between two different Knosp Grade groups (two-tailed P < 0.0001). Eighteen patients had a residual tumor extending to the suprasellar and parasellar regions which second most common site for residual tumor. Our findings demonstrate that there is no need of IO-MRI scan while operating adenomas limited in the sellae and not invading the cavernous sinus. However, we strongly recommend IO-MRI if there is any suprasellar and parasellar extension and/or cavernous sinus invasion.
