PURPOSE: The study intends to clarify the optimal endoscopic endonasal surgical strategy for symptomatic Rathke's cleft cysts (RCCs).
METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed patients with RCCs that underwent EEA surgery. The strategy for surgical and reconstruction method selection was presented. Patients were split into groups of fenestration open or closed. Pre- and postoperative symptoms, imaging, ophthalmologic, and endocrinologic exams were reviewed. The incidence of complications and the recurrence rates were determined.
RESULTS: The 75 individuals were all received primary operations. The fenestration closed group contained 32 cases, while the fenestration open group contained 43 cases. The median follow-up period was 39 months. The three primary complaints were headache (n = 51, 68.00%), vision impairment (n = 45, 60.00%), and pituitary dysfunction (n = 16, 21.33%). Of the 51 patients with preoperative headaches, 48 (94.12%) reported improvement in their symptoms following surgery. Twenty-three out of 45 patients (51.11%) experienced an improvement in visual impairment. Pituitary dysfunction was found improved in 14 out of 16 individuals (87.50%). There was no discernible difference in the rate of symptom alleviation between both groups. There were three patients (3/75, 4.00%) had cyst reaccumulation. One of them (1/75, 1.33%), which needed reoperation, was healed using pterional approach. In term of complications, cerebral infections occurred in two patients (2/75, 2.67%). Both of them recovered after antibiotic treatment. No postoperative cerebrospinal fluid rhinorrhea occurred. One patient (1/75, 1.33%) in the open group experienced epistaxis. There was no persistent hypopituitarism or diabetes insipidus (DI). Analysis of headache related factors showed that the presence of wax like nodules was related to it.
CONCLUSION: RCC was successfully treated with endoscopic endonasal surgery with few problems when the fenestration was kept as open as feasible. Preoperative identification of T2WI hypointense nodules may be a potential reference factor for surgical indication.
