Pediatric Pituitary Surgery.

Lesions of the pituitary and sellar region in children comprise a wide variety of pathologic conditions, but advances in surgical technology and techniques have enabled both biopsy and resection of such lesions despite age-dependent anatomic constraints. In this article, the authors discuss the common pathologic conditions encountered, perioperative management of these patients, surgical techniques required to address these lesions and repair the pediatric skull base, points of controversy, and future areas of work.
