The transnasal transsphenoidal approach to the sella turcica has been refined and perfected through advances in medicine and technology. Originally performed for excision of pituitary adenomas, its present primary use is pituitary ablation is hormonally dependent diseases. Our study of 55 patients who have undergone this procedure during the years 1970-1975 demonstrates that this microscopic technique gives excellent exposure and visualization of intrasellar contents. Our method gives excellent exposure and visualization of intrasellar contents. Our method with several instrument modifications is discussed. It is technically an easy procedure with a minimum of morbidigy and mortality.
经鼻蝶窦入路至蝶鞍的手术方法已通过医学和技术的进步得到改进和完善。该手术最初用于切除垂体腺瘤，目前其主要用途是在激素依赖性疾病中进行垂体消融。我们对1970年至1975年间接受该手术的55例患者的研究表明，这种显微技术能很好地暴露和观察鞍内结构。我们的方法能很好地暴露和观察鞍内结构。文中讨论了我们采用多种器械改良后的方法。该手术在技术上操作简便，发病率和死亡率极低。
