Article Synopsis
  • The endoscopic endonasal approach (EEA) for treating craniopharyngiomas shows better outcomes in visual improvement and lower rates of permanent diabetes insipidus compared to the traditional transcranial approach (TCA).
  • A study analyzing data from 2012 to 2022 revealed EEA's effectiveness in extensive tumor removal while still maintaining a similar tumor volume and follow-up duration as TCA.
  • Despite a higher occurrence of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leaks with EEA, the overall results suggest it should be a preferred method for specific cases, promoting its use at specialized surgical centers.
