Transsphenoidal hypophysectomy: a laboratory approach and commentary.

A laboratory technique for learning and practicing the transsphenoidal approach to hypophysectomy is described. The procedure utilizes a sphenoid block with the sella turcica at its center taken from a cadaver skull. The laboratory approach stimulates the operative technique, including the use of standard instruments designed for transsphenoidal hypophysectomy. Commentary on the historical background and applications of the transsphenoidal approach to the sella turcica is presented.

Humans

Cerebrospinal fluid fistula from fractured acrylic cranioplasty plate. Case report.

The authors report a patient who developed a cerebrospinal fluid fistula secondary to a fractured methyl methacrylate cranioplasty plate. There was no external evidence of trauma. X-ray films showed no evidence of the fracture. It is suggested that the impregnation of methyl methacrylate with a radiopaque material would result in visualization of such fractures.
