Pituitary lesions have been classically addressed through sublabial incisions and an operating microscope. In recent years, endoscopic techniques have been developed that provide two main advantages: they allow the natural nostrils to be used, avoiding any incision and preserving the nasal mucosa better, and they offer a much closer and sharper view of the area by being able to introduce the optic into the breast of the tumor. These two advantages translate into the patient in more postoperative
comfortable
and in tumor resections more
spacious.
