Endoscopic Endonasal Surgery for the Resection of a Cavernous Hemangioma with a Sellar Extension.
Curēus 2018 November 31
Cavernous hemangiomas with an intrasellar extension are very rare, generally benign lesions that manifest by the compression of nearby structures. The presenting symptoms usually range from visual disturbances to an endocrine imbalance. Occasional extension into the cavernous sinus has been reported, which can cause cranial nerve compression. We present the case of a 69-year-old man presenting with facial pain and decreased libido. On investigation, a lesion was identified and the parasellar region was homogeneously hyper-intense on gadolinium-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Endoscopic endonasal surgery remains one of the favored approaches for the resection of sellar lesions. Such pathology needs to remain on the neurosurgeon's differential diagnosis, making an intraoperative frozen section of these lesions a useful tool in the surgeon's armamentarium, to guide further surgical resection.
