Abstract

This article discusses seven different techniques for pituitary transposition in endoscopic endonasal surgery. The techniques are categorized based on their relationship with the dura mater and include extradural, hybrid extradural/intradural, interdural transcavernous, extended interdural transcavernous, intradural hemitransposition, intradural, and pituitary sacrifice. The article evaluates the clinical application and selection of these techniques in different anatomical regions and types of pathology. The authors emphasize the importance of selecting the most appropriate technique based on the specific case and preoperative pituitary function for successful surgical outcomes.
