Pituitaryadenoma
is a common space-occupying lesion in sellar region, usually related to genetic variation, inheritance and other factors. It is mainly treated by surgery. After pathological examination, if it is benign, it will be completely removed during surgery. Generally, it will not recur. If the tumor surrounds the internal carotid artery and optic nerve, it may not be completely removed. Recurrence may occur. If the pituitary adenoma is malignant, it cannot be completely removed by surgery due to its easy invasion of surrounding tissues, and the probability of recurrence is relatively large.
