Intense focus on avoiding complications in a very delicate brain procedure has shown remarkable success among 514 patients treated over the past decade at Providence Saint John’s Health Center. An advanced minimally invasive surgical approach through the nostrils was used to remove pituitary adenomas, a type of tumor.
More than 98 percent of patients in this landmark study at the hospital’s Pacific Neuroscience Institute were discharged to home after tumor removal, spending an average of just two days in the hospital. Hospital stays decreased over time with many patients going home one day post-surgery. Less than 1 percent of all patients sustained any permanent neurological injuries.
