BACKGROUND: Neurosurgeons treat nonfunctioning pituitary adenomas by surgical resection. Based on the adherence of the tumor to the normal pituitary gland, operative risks may include hormone replacement therapy for postoperative hypopituitarism with gross total resection that injures the gland or recurrent tumor with subtotal resection and purposeful avoidance of gland manipulation. None of the patients presented in this article had a preoperative preference regarding extent of resection. This study aimed to evaluate postoperative patient preferences regarding extent of resection.
METHODS: Adult patients who underwent resection of adenomas between 2015 and 2023 were retrospectively reviewed and surveyed. After surgery, participating patients were asked for their preference regarding 100% tumor resection with lifelong daily hormone replacement therapy versus 90% tumor resection with a chance of recurrence in the hypothetical situation where the neurosurgeon encounters tumor adherent to the normal gland.
RESULTS: Of the 73 patients included, 54 (74.0%) responded to the survey, with the majority (36 [66.7%]) preferring 90% resection with the chance of tumor recurrence. Tumor recurrence (odds ratio 2.3, 95% confidence interval 2.1-2.5, P = 0.03) and steroid avoidance (odds ratio 2.2, 95% confidence interval 2.0-2.4, P = 0.04) were the 2 variables that were significant predictors of patient preference in multivariate regression analysis.
CONCLUSIONS: Although patients may not have the preoperative insight or experience to have a strong conviction regarding the extent of adenoma resection, the consequences following surgery clearly influence their preference. Most patients in our study, including patients with gross total resection and especially patients who experienced side effects of steroid therapy, preferred subtotal resection with the chance of tumor recurrence over hormone replacement therapy.
