Sellar pituitary tumor

Sellar region space-occupying pituitary tumor is a very common disease in daily life. It not only causes great harm to the patient's physical health, but also seriously affects their normal life and work. Therefore, it is particularly important to understand relevant knowledge and find scientific and effective treatment methods. This disease generally requires surgical treatment, and the possibility of recurrence after surgery is very high.

1. For the patient's current condition, surgical treatment is risky, and even surgical treatment may cause recurrence. Therefore, for the patient's current condition, local radiotherapy can be considered in combination with traditional Chinese medicine. The organic combination of the two methods can complement each other's deficiencies, enhance the efficacy of tumor inhibition and tumor elimination, better control the development of the disease, and achieve long-term survival with tumors.

2. Surgery is prone to recurrence and metastasis. It is recommended that you use Chinese herbal medicine to treat blood vessels. The effect is better and quicker. It has a unique therapeutic effect on advanced malignant tumors and pituitary tumors. It is safe and will not produce any toxic side effects on the body. Patients can see the treatment effect in a short time (15-20 days), but the hope of cure is still relatively large. I wish you a speedy recovery!

3. The first choice for patients with pituitary tumors is surgery. There are two main surgical methods for pituitary adenoma. One is what we used to call craniotomy, which is to open the brain and then perform this surgery.

There is another method called transsphenoidal surgery. These two surgical methods are different. Craniotomy means there is a wound on the head. This kind of surgery is very damaging and will affect the patient's appearance. If transsphenoidal surgery is used, the most commonly used method now is transnasal surgery. There is no change in the patient's appearance. This method causes less damage to the patient, recovers quickly, and has a good effect. There are no sequelae.

4 Pituitary tumors are a group of tumors that arise from the anterior and posterior pituitary lobes and residual cells of the craniopharyngeal epithelium. Pituitary tumors account for approximately 10% of intracranial tumors. Most surgical treatments require surgery, and the choice of treatment plan must depend on the specific conditions such as the nature and size of the tumor, compression and erosion of surrounding tissues, pituitary function, and systemic condition.

Guidance:

Postoperative diet should be nutritious, light and easily digestible. Avoid increased intracranial pressure caused by constipation, pay attention to smooth bowel movements during nursing, provide sufficient drinking water, and give laxatives and bowel-lubricating drugs when necessary. Eat less spicy and greasy food, and avoid eating catfish. If radiotherapy is required, it will generally take about one month after surgery. During radiotherapy, avoid going to public places, pay attention to nutrition, and measure blood counts regularly. Take medication as prescribed by the doctor and have a CT scan once a year.
