Resumo: | Transsphenoidal pituitary surgery (TSS) remains the treatment of choice for Cushing's disease (CD). Despite the widespread acceptance of this procedure as the first line treatment in CD, the indication of a second TSS in not cured or relapsed DC patients is not consensus. We report the results of TSS in 108 patients with CD (a total of 117 surgeries). The mean postoperative follow-up period was 6 years. Remission was defined as clinical and laboratorial signs of adrenal insufficiency, period of glucocorticoid dependence, serum cortisol suppression on oral 1-mg dexamethasone overnight suppression test and clinical remission of hypercortisolism. We evaluated 103 patients with CD by the time of the first TSS. Fourteen patients underwent second TSS (5 had already been operated in others centers; in 5 patients the first surgery was not curative; in 4 patients CD relapsed). Remission rates were 85.4% and 28.6% (p < 0.001) after first and second TSS, respectively. In microadenomas, remission rates were higher than macroadenomas (94.9% vs. 73.9%; p = 0.006). In patients with negative pituitary imaging remission rates were 71.4% (p = 0.003; vs. microadenomas). Postoperative complications were: transient diabetes insipidus, definitive diabetes insipidus, hypopituitarism, stroke and one death. Only hypopituitarism was more frequent after second TSS (p = 0.015). In conclusion, TSS for CD is an effective and safe treatment. The best remission rates were observed at the first surgery and in microadenomas. The low remission rates after a second TSS suggest that this approach could not be a good therapeutic choice when the first one was not curative. |

Transsphenoidal pituitary surgery (TSS) remains the treatment of choice for Cushing's disease (CD). Despite the widespread acceptance of this procedure as the first line treatment in CD, the indication of a second TSS in not cured or relapsed DC patients is not consensus. We report the results of TSS in 108 patients with CD (a total of 117 surgeries). The mean postoperative follow-up period was 6 years. Remission was defined as clinical and laboratorial signs of adrenal insufficiency, period of glucocorticoid dependence, serum cortisol suppression on oral 1-mg dexamethasone overnight suppression test and clinical remission of hypercortisolism. We evaluated 103 patients with CD by the time of the first TSS. Fourteen patients underwent second TSS (5 had already been operated in others centers; in 5 patients the first surgery was not curative; in 4 patients CD relapsed). Remission rates were 85.4% and 28.6% (p < 0.001) after first and second TSS, respectively. In microadenomas, remission rates were higher than macroadenomas (94.9% vs. 73.9%; p = 0.006). In patients with negative pituitary imaging remission rates were 71.4% (p = 0.003; vs. microadenomas). Postoperative complications were: transient diabetes insipidus, definitive diabetes insipidus, hypopituitarism, stroke and one death. Only hypopituitarism was more frequent after second TSS (p = 0.015). In conclusion, TSS for CD is an effective and safe treatment. The best remission rates were observed at the first surgery and in microadenomas. The low remission rates after a second TSS suggest that this approach could not be a good therapeutic choice when the first one was not curative. |
