BRAIN & SPINE 2024; 4:103902. [PMID: 39309548 PMCID: PMC11416550 DOI: 10.1016/j.bas.2024.103902] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/23/2024] [Revised: 08/05/2024] [Accepted: 09/06/2024] [Indexed: 09/25/2024]
Abstract
Introduction Mental status, characterised by anxiety and depression, significantly influences physical well-being, particularly in patients with spinal stenosis symptoms. Research question The prevalence of depression and anxiety in our cohort. The correlation between psychological distress and physical outcome after surgery, including postoperative recovery and satisfaction. Materials and methods Questionnaires evaluating anxiety and depression (HADS), functionality (ODI), quality of life (EQ-5D), and perceived recovery (Likert-scale) were sent to a randomly selected cohort of 450 lumbar spinal stenosis patients, with or without spondylolisthesis, who underwent surgery between 2007 and 2013. Results are presented, dichotomised by HADS score (score ≥8 indicating psychologically impaired) and in a Four Quadrants Model integrating functional outcomes and perceived recovery separately for psychologically impaired and non-impaired cases. Results Among the 147 included patients, 32 (22%) exhibited anxiety and/or depression (impaired cases). Satisfactory outcome (perceived recovery) was reported in 29.0% of the impaired cases and 78.3% of the non-impaired cases (p < 0.001). The mean postoperative functionality score of the impaired cases was 42.46 ± 16.24, in contrast to 18.48 ± 18.25 for the non-impaired cases (p < 0.001). In the impaired group, only 12.5% achieved both a good functional outcome (ODI ≤24) and satisfactory perceived recovery, compared with 58.4% in the non-impaired group. Discussion and conclusion Patients reporting anxiety and/or depression demonstrate an inferior long-term outcome after spinal stenosis surgery compared to non-impaired patients. This clinically relevant difference underscores the importance of addressing depression and anxiety in preoperative counselling to optimize patient satisfaction and functional outcomes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To report our experience with 18F-fluoro-ethyl-tyrosine (FET) positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT) co-registered with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) (FET-PET/MRICR) in the care trajectory for persistent acromegaly. DESIGN Prospective case series. PATIENTS Ten patients with insufficiently controlled acromegaly referred to our team to evaluate surgical options. MEASUREMENTS FET-PET/MRICR was used to support decision-making if MRI alone and multidisciplinary team evaluation did not provide sufficient clarity to proceed to surgery. RESULTS FET-PET/MRICR showed suspicious (para)sellar tracer uptake in all patients. In five patients FET-PET/MRICR was fully concordant with conventional MRI, and in one patient partially concordant. FET-PET/MRICR identified suggestive new foci in four other patients. Surgical re-exploration was performed in nine patients (aimed at total resection (6), debulking (2), diagnosis (1)), and one patient underwent radiation therapy. In 7 of 9 (78%) operated patients FET-PET/MRICR findings were confirmed intraoperatively, and in six (67%) also histologically. IGF-1 decreased significantly in eight patients (89%). All patients showed clinical improvement. Complete biochemical remission was achieved in three patients (50% of procedures in which total resection was anticipated feasible). Biochemistry improved in five and was unchanged in one patient. No permanent complications occurred. At six months, optimal outcome (preoperative intended goal achieved without permanent complications) was achieved in six (67%) patients and an intermediate outcome (goal not achieved, but no complications) in the other three patients. CONCLUSIONS In patients with persisting acromegaly without a clear surgical target on MRI, FET-PET/MRICR is a new tracer to provide additional information to aid decision-making by the multidisciplinary pituitary team.

Bilateral Inferior Petrosal Sinus Sampling Without Lateralization Is Less Accurate for the Diagnosis of Cushing Disease. J Endocr Soc 2024; 8:bvae056. [PMID: 38572419 PMCID: PMC10989187 DOI: 10.1210/jendso/bvae056] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/02/2023] [Indexed: 04/05/2024] Open
Abstract
Context During bilateral inferior petrosal sinus sampling (BIPSS), the side-to-side adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) ratio, referred to as sampling lateralization, was used to predict pituitary adenoma localization. Objective To investigate the potential different diagnostic accuracy of BIPSS for differentiating Cushing disease (CD) and ectopic ACTH secretory syndrome (EAS) patients with low lateralization (inferior petrosal sinus [IPS]:IPS ≤ 1.4) and high lateralization (IPS:IPS > 1.4). Methods This single-center retrospective study (2011-2021) included (all patients had BIPSS results and confirmed pathologic diagnoses) 220 consecutive CD patients (validation set), 30 EAS patients, and 40 of the CD patients who had digital subtraction angiography (DSA) videos (discovery set). Results In the discovery set, the low-lateralization CD group (n = 11) had a higher median plasma ACTH concentration (62.2, IQR 44.7-181.0 ng/L) than the high-lateralization CD group (n = 29) (33.0, IQR 18.5-59.5, P = .013). Lower IPS to peripheral ratios were observed in the low-lateralization group during BIPSS, both before and after stimulation (P = .013 and P = .028). The sensitivity of BIPSS before stimulation in differentiating CD from EAS was lower in the low-lateralization group than the high-lateralization group (54.6% vs 93.1%, P = .003), as validated in the validation set. DSA videos revealed higher vascular area difference visible in the 2 sides of the pituitary in low lateralization (median 1.2 × 105 pixels, IQR 0.5-1.8) than the high-lateralization group (0.4 × 105 pixels, IQR 0.1-0.7, P = .008). The vascular area ratio of the 2 sides was also significantly higher in low (1.55, IQR 1.31-2.20) than high lateralization (1.19, IQR 1.07-1.35, P = .010). Conclusion Our study suggested that low lateralization in CD patients may reduce the diagnostic sensitivity of BIPSS, which might be potentially associated with peripituitary vascular anatomy.

Prospective Integrated Individualized Clinical Decision-making and Outcome Evaluation for Surgery in Patients with Acromegaly: A New Paradigm? Arch Med Res 2023; 54:102918. [PMID: 38007381 DOI: 10.1016/j.arcmed.2023.102918] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/04/2023] [Revised: 10/31/2023] [Accepted: 11/09/2023] [Indexed: 11/27/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Growth-hormone-producing pituitary adenomas have variable likelihood for biochemical remission (BR). During preoperative counseling, individual estimated surgical likelihoods/risks should be balanced against alternative (medical) treatments, which is necessary for accurate outcome presentation. Preoperative estimation of BR or total resection (TR) likelihoods have not been reported, resulting in extrapolation of individual outcomes. AIMS To share an innovative outcome reporting paradigm by integrating surgical decision-making, and expected/realized results, resulting from the Value-Based Health Care (VBHC) care path with periodical performance evaluation and care innovation cycle. METHODS Prospective cohort study of consecutive patients with acromegaly undergoing surgery (January 2016-December 2020; postoperative follow-up ≥6 months) reporting on both classic, and novel innovative outcome evaluations. RESULTS Fifty eight patients (66 procedures) were included. Intended TR was achieved in 34/50 procedures, whereas intended debulking was achieved in 15/16 procedures. 38/66 procedures resulted in BR, and 4 procedures resulted in permanent complications. Achieving intended surgical goal was estimated preoperatively as likely in 33 (goal achieved (GA) in 28/33), potentially in 27 (GA in 19/27), and unlikely in 6 procedures (GA in 2/6). Integrated Outcome Square 1 (IOQ1) -intended effect achieved without complications- was achieved in 46/66 patients. CONCLUSION Implementation of the developed quality process positively affects preoperative individual shared decision-making, resulting in improved (individual) outcomes, particularly in complex patients for whom preoperative chances are not fully reflected by tumor size and KNOSP grade, e.g., reoperations, or other challenging circumstances identified during preoperative counseling. Through repeated evaluations, our own team's knowledge increased, allowing for improved individualized treatment strategies.

Efficacy and Safety of Endoscopic Transsphenoidal Resection for Prolactinoma: A Retrospective Multicenter Case-series. Arch Med Res 2023; 54:102919. [PMID: 38040527 DOI: 10.1016/j.arcmed.2023.102919] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/07/2023] [Revised: 11/03/2023] [Accepted: 11/13/2023] [Indexed: 12/03/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Endoscopic transsphenoidal surgery (ETSS) for prolactinoma is reserved for dopamine agonist (DA) resistance, intolerance, or apoplexy. High remission (overall 67%, microprolactinoma up to 90%), low recurrence (5-20%) rates highlighted that surgery might be first-line treatment. AIMS To report on outcomes of ETSS in a cohort of prolactinomas. METHODS Multicenter retrospective cohort of 137 prolactinoma patients (age 38.2 ± 13.7 years; 61.3% female, median follow-up 28.0 [15.0-55.5] months) operated between 2010-2019 with histopathological confirmation. RESULTS Median preoperative prolactin levels were 166 (98-837 µg/L; males 996 [159-2145 µg/L] vs. females 129 [84-223 µg/L], p <0.001). 56 (40.9%) microprolactinomas, 69 (50.4%) macroprolactinomas, and 7 (5.1%) giant prolactinomas were included, whereas no adenoma was detected in 5 (3.6%) patients. Males had larger tumors (macroprolactinomas: 38, 71.7%) vs. 31 (36.9%), p <0.001; giant prolactinomas: 7 (13.2%) vs. 0 (0.0%), (p <0.001). Prolactinomas were graded as KNOSP-3 in 15 (11.5%), and KNOSP-4 in 20 (15.3%) patients. Primary indication was DA intolerance (59, 43.1%); males 14 (26.4%) vs. females 45 (53.6%), p = 0.006. Long-term remission (i.e., DA-free prolactin level <1xULN) was achieved in 87 (63.5%) patients, being higher in intended complete resection (69/92 [75.0%]), and lower in males (25 [47.2%] vs. 62 females [73.8%], p = 0.002). Transient DI (n = 29, 21.2%) was the most frequent complication. CONCLUSIONS Despite high proportions of macroprolactinoma and KNOSP 3-4, long-term remission rates were 63.5% overall, and 83.3% in microprolactinoma patients. Males had less favorable remission rate compared to females. These findings highlight that ETSS may be a safe and efficacious treatment to manage prolactinoma.

Abstract
Cushing's disease is the most common cause of endogenous hypercortisolemia, and transsphenoidal surgery remains the first line therapy for removal of the ACTH-secreting adenoma. While post-operative remission rates are high in experienced hands, there remains a 2% risk of recurrence per year. Patients with the highest chance for cure are those with small, non-invasive tumors that are visible on pre-operative MRI and identified during surgery and are performed by high-volume pituitary neurosurgeons. Surgery for persistent or recurrent disease is frequently indicated and is most successful in the hands of experienced surgeons and in cases where tumor is visible on MRI.

Abstract
Background Transsphenoidal surgery is the preferred first-line therapy for most pituitary adenoma(PA), and the conventional strategy of treatment is intracapsular resection(IR). The protocol of extracapsular resection(ER), which considers the pseudocapsule as the PA boundary for surgical removal, has also been introduced gradually. In this study, the clinical efficacies and complications were explored and compared between these two procedures. Methods A systematic literature review was performed in the PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science and Cochrane databases. Articles comparing between IR and ER were included. Results There were 7 studies containing 1768 cases in accordance with the inclusion criteria. Although the meta-analysis showed no significant difference in complete resection, a sensitivity analysis revealed that ER was more conducive to total PA resection than IR. Moreover, we found a significant difference in favor of ER regarding biochemical remission. Furthermore, there was no significant difference in the incidence rate of certain complications, such as hormone deficiency, diabetes insipidus, intraoperative cerebrospinal fluid(CSF) and postoperative CSF leakage. However, a sensitivity analysis suggested that IR decreased the risk of intraoperative CSF leakage. Conclusions This meta-analysis unveiled that ER contributed to biochemical remission. To some extent, our results also showed that ER played a positive role in complete resection, but that IR reduced the incidence of intraoperative CSF leakage. However, the available evidence needs to be further authenticated using well-designed prospective, multicenter, randomized controlled clinical trials.

Abstract
Cushing's disease requires accurate diagnosis, careful treatment selection, and long-term management to optimise patient outcomes. The Pituitary Society convened a consensus workshop comprising more than 50 academic researchers and clinical experts to discuss the application of recent evidence to clinical practice. In advance of the virtual meeting, data from 2015 to present about screening and diagnosis; surgery, medical, and radiation therapy; and disease-related and treatment-related complications of Cushing's disease summarised in recorded lectures were reviewed by all participants. During the meeting, concise summaries of the recorded lectures were presented, followed by small group breakout discussions. Consensus opinions from each group were collated into a draft document, which was reviewed and approved by all participants. Recommendations regarding use of laboratory tests, imaging, and treatment options are presented, along with algorithms for diagnosis of Cushing's syndrome and management of Cushing's disease. Topics considered most important to address in future research are also identified.
