[PMID: 38835396 PMCID: PMC11150054 DOI: 10.1055/a-2324-1303] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/09/2024] [Accepted: 05/10/2024] [Indexed: 06/06/2024] Open
Abstract
Purpose This article aims to identify patient- and surgery-related factors that could predict the development of postoperative central diabetes insipidus (DI). Methods This is a retrospective case-control study conducted at a single-institution tertiary referral center. Patients undergoing endoscopic endonasal skull base surgery for pituitary adenoma between November 2018 and April 2023 were recruited. The main outcome measures collected include age, gender, comorbidities, tumor type, postoperative DI, intraoperative and postoperative cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leak, flow of CSF leak, number of layers required for repair, the use of nasal packing, and hospital length of stay. Results A total of 20 patients developed DI postoperatively. Patients' demographic and comorbidity profile did not correlate with DI development. The encounter of an intraoperative CSF leak was correlated with postop DI (chi-square (1) = 18.35, p < 0.001) with a relative risk (RR) of 2.7 (confidence interval [CI] = 1.37-5.28). The use of nasal packs was also correlated with postop DI (chi-square (1) = 10.17, p = 0.001) with a RR of 1.8 (CI = 1.15-2.87). Defects requiring a two or more layers for reconstruction also correlated with postop DI compared to single layer repairs (chi-square (1) = 12.15, p < 0.001) irrelevant of the materials used. Development of DI postop correlated with an increased hospital length of stay ( t (64) = -3.35, p = 0.001). Conclusion The physician should be careful when evaluating patients with pituitary adenomas in the postoperative period, particularly those with intraoperative CSF leak, nasal packing, and those who underwent multilayer reconstruction of the surgical defect.

Reconstruction of the Anterior Skull Base Using the Nasoseptal Flap: A Review. Cancers (Basel) 2023; 16:169. [PMID: 38201596 PMCID: PMC10778443 DOI: 10.3390/cancers16010169] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/26/2023] [Revised: 12/17/2023] [Accepted: 12/23/2023] [Indexed: 01/12/2024] Open
Abstract
The nasoseptal flap is a workhorse reconstructive option for anterior skull base defects during endonasal surgery. This paper highlights the versatility of the nasoseptal flap. After providing a brief historical perspective, this review will focus on the relevant primary literature published in the last ten years. We will touch upon new applications of the flap, how the flap has been modified to expand its reach and robustness, and some of the current limitations. We will conclude by discussing what the future holds for improving upon the design and use of the nasoseptal flap in anterior skull base reconstruction.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Endoscopic endonasal transsphenoidal surgery is safe and effective for sellar and parasellar tumor removal. Partial middle turbinate (MT) resection is sometimes performed to optimize the surgical field and facilitate postoperative care. Disturbances in olfaction are concerning because of the lack of randomized studies in this field. STUDY DESIGN Prospective randomized trial. SETTING Single academic medical center. METHODS We resected the lower halves of bilateral MTs in the resected group and laterally fractured bilateral MTs in the preserved group. Olfactory outcomes and sinonasal conditions were assessed by using the validated Taiwan Smell Identification Test and Lund-Kennedy Endoscopy Score, respectively. Forty-nine patients were enrolled in the final analysis, of whom 23 underwent partial MT resection. RESULTS The average Taiwan Smell Identification Test result was 36.9 one month after surgery, with a significant change of -4.4 ± 3.1 (mean ± SD; P < .01) from baseline. The impact was not significant at 3 months (-2.1 ± 2.6, P = .13) or 6 months (0.3 ± 2.0, P = .79). Between the MT resection and preservation groups, there were no significant differences at postoperative 1 month (P = .60), 3 months (P = .86), and 6 months (P > .99). Lund-Kennedy Endoscopy Score was still higher at 3 months (P = .006) after surgery but returned to the preoperative level at 6 months (P = .63). CONCLUSIONS Endoscopic endonasal transsphenoidal surgery may affect olfaction at 1 month after surgery, and olfactory function is expected to return after 3 months. Partial MT resection did not result in additional olfactory loss. It is safe to perform partial MT resection during surgery without compromising the olfactory outcomes.

Clinical Impact of Hydroxyapatite on the Outcome of Skull Base Reconstruction for Intraoperative High-Flow CSF Leak: A Propensity Score Matching Analysis. Front Oncol 2022; 12:906162. [PMID: 35600408 PMCID: PMC9116718 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2022.906162] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/28/2022] [Accepted: 04/14/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Despite recent advances in skull base reconstructive techniques, including the multilayer technique during the last decade, complete reconstruction of grade 3 intraoperative high-flow cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leak remains challenging. This study was designed to investigate the role of injectable hydroxyapatite (HXA) used in the multilayer technique on the clinical outcome of skull base reconstruction for intraoperative high-flow CSF leak. Materials and Methods This study enrolled 187 patients who experienced intraoperative high-flow CSF leak after endoscopic endonasal surgery for anterior skull base or suprasellar pathologies between January 2014 and July 2021. All skull base defects were reconstructed using the conventional multilayer technique including a vascularized naso-septal flap (NSF, n = 141) and the combined use of HXA with the conventional multilayer technique (HXA group, n = 46). We retrospectively evaluated the efficacy of the HXA group by 1:2 propensity score matching analysis. Results Overall, 17 of 187 patients (9.1%) showed postoperative CSF leaks, resulting in second reconstruction surgery. There were no statistical differences in patient age, sex, body mass index, tumor location, tumor type, and degree of resection, except for the follow-up period between the two groups. The HXA group showed a significantly lower incidence of postoperative CSF leak than the control group (0% vs. 12.1%, p < 0.05). Postoperative lumbar drain (LD) was performed in 8.7% of the HXA group compared to 46.1% of the control group (p < 0.01). CSF leak-related infection rates showed a decreasing tendency in the HXA group compared to the control group (0 vs. 7.1%, p = 0.06). A total of 46 patients in the HXA group were well matched with the control group (92 patients) at a 1:2 ratio. In the propensity score-matched control group, there were higher rates of postoperative CSF leaks than in the HXA group. Conclusion The use of HXA combined with the conventional multilayer technique completely reduced postoperative CSF leaks in this study. This technique resulted in reduced CSF leakage, even without postoperative LD, and decreased infection rates. Further randomized comparative studies are required to confirm our findings.

World Neurosurg 2021; 158:e451-e458. [PMID: 34767991 DOI: 10.1016/j.wneu.2021.11.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/22/2021] [Revised: 10/31/2021] [Accepted: 11/01/2021] [Indexed: 10/19/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Sellar reconstruction following endoscopic endonasal surgery (EES) requires modification based on the degree of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leak. For high-flow (grade II or III according to Esposito et al. 2007) intraoperative CSF leak, lumbar drainage (LD), in addition to the multilayer closing technique, is generally recommended. However, LD occasionally has complications including postpuncture headache, overdrainage symptoms, and increased length of stay. We retrospectively evaluated the outcome of our graded reconstruction strategy using a multilayer technique with a novel material, without LD, after EES. METHODS Ninety-seven patients who underwent EES with grade II or III intraoperative CSF leak between June 2020 and March 2021 were retrospectively reviewed. For grade II CSF leak, fibrin sealant and a nasoseptal flap were placed; for grade III CSF leak, a multilayer technique was used in combination with collagen matrix, an acellular dermal graft, injectable hydroxyapatite (HXA), and a nasoseptal flap. Postoperatively, routine LD was not performed. RESULTS This study included 48 (49.5%) grade II and 49 (50.5%) grade III CSF leaks. At follow-up (mean, 8.7 months), no patient showed postoperative CSF leak in either group. No HXA-associated complications occurred. CONCLUSIONS A graded surgical repair strategy after EES could avoid postoperative CSF leak. Combined use of injectable HXA and acellular dermal grafts for high-flow CSF leak can limit LD requirement without significant risks.
