To understand the natural changes in the CT appearance of a pituitary mass after transsphenoidal hypophysectomy of a pituitary tumor, we obtained CT follow-up studies in 12 patients with pituitary adenoma. The heights of the pituitary masses on the coronal sections of each CT study were measured. It was found that the height of the pituitary mass did not return to normal immediately after the operation, despite complete removal of the pituitary tumor. Instead, the height gradually returned to normal between 3 and 4 months after the operation. Results of this study suggest that follow-up CT study of pituitary masses is best performed 3-4 months after transsphenoidal hypophysectomy.
为了解垂体瘤经蝶窦垂体切除术后垂体肿块CT表现的自然变化，我们对12例垂体腺瘤患者进行了CT随访研究。测量了每次CT检查冠状位切片上垂体肿块的高度。结果发现，尽管垂体瘤已完全切除，但术后垂体肿块的高度并未立即恢复正常。相反，其高度在术后3至4个月逐渐恢复正常。本研究结果表明，垂体肿块的CT随访检查最好在经蝶窦垂体切除术后3至4个月进行。
