PURPOSE: The indications for and the optimal biopsy approach in pituitary stalk-hypothalamic (PsH) lesions are controversial. Biopsies through an endoscopic endonasal approach (EEA) for PsH lesions have often been considered to cause the infundibulo-tuberal syndrome. The purpose of this study was to analyze the surgical and endocrinological safety of EEA biopsies for PsH lesions.
METHODS: A total of 39 consecutive patients who underwent an EEA biopsy between June 2011 and August 2020 in a single institute were retrospectively analyzed. The ophthalmological and endocrinological outcomes were assessed before and after surgery.
RESULTS: PsH lesions were confirmed to be diverse pathological diagnoses, ranging from lymphocytic hypophysitis to diffuse midline glioma, and the most common pathologic diagnosis was a germinoma (18 patients, 46.2%). No patients developed visual deterioration after the biopsy. In patients without preoperative panhypopituitarism, 13 out of 28 patients (46.4%) developed new anterior pituitary hormonal deficiencies after the biopsy. When the tissue was collected from the stalk, the endocrinological deterioration rate was 100% (6 of 6 patients), while the rate was 31.8% (7 of 22 patients) when tissue could be harvested from an extra-stalk lesion. The rate of newly developed permanent diabetes insipidus after surgery was 40.9% (9 of 22 patients). The median surgery time was 125 min, and there was no postoperative CSF leakage or infections noted.
CONCLUSIONS: An EEA biopsy for PsH lesions is a safe and efficient surgical method unless the tissue is collected from the stalk.
