Cavernous sinus (CS) invasion is one of the most unfavorable features of pituitary adenomas. The most widely used classification was proposed by Knosp in 1993 and revised in 2015. The aim of this study is to extend our previous experience by comparing the pre-operative neuroradiological assessment with the intra-operative endoscopic endonasal inspection in order to evaluate the real rate of CS invasion and analyze its correlation with the surgical outcome.

Abstract

Cavernous sinus (CS) invasion is one of the most unfavorable features of pituitary adenomas. The most widely used classification was proposed by Knosp in 1993 and revised in 2015. The aim of this study is to extend our previous experience by comparing the pre-operative neuroradiological assessment with the intra-operative endoscopic endonasal inspection in order to evaluate the real rate of CS invasion and analyze its correlation with the surgical outcome.
