BACKGROUND: Surgical treatment of complex giant pituitary adenomas (GPAs) presents significant challenges. The efficacy and safety of combining transsphenoidal and transcranial approaches for these tumors remain controversial. In this largest cohort of patients with complex GPAs, we compared the surgical outcomes between those undergoing a combined regimen and a non-combined regimen. We also examined the differences in risks of complications, costs, and logistics between the two groups, which might offer valuable information for the appropriate management of these patients.
PATIENTS AND METHODS: This was a multicenter retrospective cohort study conducted at 13 neurosurgical centers. Consecutive patients who received a combined or non-combined regimen for complex GPAs were enrolled. The primary outcome was gross total resection, while secondary outcomes included complications, surgical duration, and relapse. A propensity score-based weighting method was used to account for differences between the groups.
RESULTS: Out of 647 patients [298 (46.1%) women, mean age: 48.5 ± 14.0 years] with complex GPAs, 91 were in the combined group and 556 were in the noncombined group. Compared with the noncombined regimen, the combined regimen was associated with a higher probability of gross total resection [50.5% vs. 40.6%, odds ratio (OR): 2.18, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.30-3.63, P = 0.003]. The proportion of patients with life-threatening complications was lower in the combined group than in the non-combined group (4.4% vs. 11.2%, OR: 0.25, 95% CI: 0.08-0.78, P = 0.017). No marked differences were found between the groups in terms of other surgical or endocrine-related complications. However, the combined regimen exhibited a longer average surgery duration of 1.3 h ( P < 0.001) and higher surgical costs of 22,000 CNY (~ 3,000 USD, P = 0.022) compared with the noncombined approach.
CONCLUSIONS: The combined regimen offered increased rates of total resection and decreased incidence of life-threatening complications, which might be recommended as the first-line choice for these patients.
