Material And Methods:- 20 patients undergoing sellar region surgery between March 2014 and March 2016 were assessed retrospectively and prospectively in our department. Results: The preoperative clinical presentation of the patients, visual assessment, hormone profile, computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging findings, were evaluated and revealed the importance of the parameters for surgery. Surgical technique, tumor characteristics, postoperative clinical condition of the patients, hormone profile, complications and follow-up period were reviewed.
