The paper, "Endonasal Endoscopic Transsphenoidal Resection of Tuberculum Sella Meningioma with Anterior Cerebral Artery Encasement", by Sivashanmugam Dhandapani, Hazem M. Negm, Salomon Cohen, Vijay K. Anand, and Theodore H. Schwartz, presents a case of a patient with a tuberculum sella meningioma encasing the anterior cerebral artery. The authors successfully performed a gross total excision using an endonasal endoscopic transsphenoidal approach. The paper demonstrates that, with careful surgical technique and experience, vascular encasement should not be a contraindication for endonasal endoscopic surgery.
The abstract of the paper discusses a case where a patient with a tuberculum sella meningioma encasing the anterior cerebral artery underwent a successful gross total excision using an endonasal endoscopic transsphenoidal approach. The authors argue that in the absence of luminal narrowing, such meningiomas can be removed using this approach, provided the surgeon has sufficient experience and appropriate equipment.
