Visual Outcome After Transsphenoidal Surgery for Pituitary Macroadenoma (RetroADEN)

Endoscopic endonasal transsphenoidal surgery is a procedure for the treatment of pituitary macroadenomas that cause visual impairment through optic chiasm compression. The aim of this retrospective study is to describe visual outcome after this procedure.
