Machine Learning in Pituitary Surgery.

Machine learning applications in neurosurgery are increasingly reported for diverse tasks such as faster and more accurate preoperative diagnosis, enhanced lesion characterization, as well as surgical outcome, complications and healthcare cost prediction. Even though the pertinent literature in pituitary surgery is less extensive with respect to other neurosurgical diseases, past research attempted to answer clinically relevant questions to better assist surgeons and clinicians. In the present chapter we review reported ML applications in pituitary surgery including differential diagnosis, preoperative lesion characterization (immunohistochemistry, cavernous sinus invasion, tumor consistency), surgical outcome and complication predictions (gross total resection, tumor recurrence, and endocrinological remission, cerebrospinal fluid leak, postoperative hyponatremia). Moreover, we briefly discuss from a practical standpoint the current barriers to clinical translation of machine learning research. On the topic of pituitary surgery, published reports can be considered mostly preliminary, requiring larger training populations and strong external validation. Thoughtful selection of clinically relevant outcomes of interest and transversal application of model development pipeline-together with accurate methodological planning and multicenter collaborations-have the potential to overcome current limitations and ultimately provide additional tools for more informed patient management.
