Sellar/Parasellar Tumors

Find Hope With Expert Sellar Tumor Care

Sellar/parasellar tumors grow at the base of the skull near the pituitary gland, where growth hormones are regulated. The growths are usually benign, but can cause headache, double vision and facial numbness if they invade surrounding areas. They may put pressure on the pituitary gland, prompting it to secrete excess hormones.

Our locations of the AdventHealth Neuroscience Institute network offer state-of-the-art care for adults and children affected by sellar/parasellar tumors. We specialize in minimally invasive treatments that identify and remove tumors with immense accuracy. These advanced techniques pinpoint affected tissue with millimeter precision, enabling our surgeons to remove the tumor or reduce its size and return normal function to the pituitary gland. Minimally invasive endoscopic approaches allow the removal of the tumor through the nasal cavity, resulting in a quicker recovery.
