Abstract:
BACKGROUND: Knowledge about the relationship between quality of life and self-care among patients with colorectal cancer in Turkey is limited. PURPOSE: This prospective, descriptive study evaluated the quality of life and self-care agency of patients who underwent surgery for colorectal cancer. METHODS: Patients were recruited to participate preoperatively from the general surgery clinics in 2 hospitals in Turkey. Sociodemographic variables were collected preoperatively, and the Quality of Life Scale for Cancer Patients (EORTC QLQ-C30) Turkish Version 3.0, the Quality of Life Scale for Colorectal Cancer Patients (EORTC QLQ-CR29), and the Self-Care Agency Scale were completed preoperatively and at 1, 3, and 6 months postoperatively. RESULTS: Thirty-seven (37) patients (average age 59.49 years [±10.84]) who met the inclusion criteria participated in the study. The majority were male (22 patients; 60%), and 25 (67%) did not have a stoma postoperatively. Compared with preoperative scores, QLQ-C30 general well-being, functional status, physical functions, and role performance scores decreased in the first month after surgery and increased in the third and sixth months (58.3 [preoperative] vs 75.0 [month 3] vs 83.3 [month 6]; P = .000). The preoperative QLQ-CR29 excretory system pleasure scores were higher than the postoperative third- and sixth-month scores (1.7 [preoperative] vs 1.0 [month 3] vs 1.0 [month 6]; P = .001). The Self-Care Agency scores at 6 months were higher than the postoperative first month (109.62 ± 11.62 vs 115.19 ± 14.22; P = .006). A positive correlation was found between Self-Care Agency scores and functional status scores of the QLQ-C30 scale at 3 and 6 months postoperatively (P = .000). CONCLUSION: Quality of life and Self-Care Agency scores decreased immediately after surgery but increased in the following 6 months. A positive correlation was found between quality of life and self-care agency.

Abstract:
Background: Children usually experience anxiety before undergoing general anesthesia. We did this prospective cross-sectional study to find the incidence of preoperative anxiety in children undergoing surgery in a tertiary care hospital. Methodology: This study was conducted at Security Forces Hospital, Riyadh, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. We included children aged 2-12 y, who were planned to undergo general anesthesia for surgery. Preoperatively, children’s anxiety level was assessed using mYPAS (Modified Yale Preoperative Anxiety Scale) scale. We report the incidence of preoperative anxiety as numbers and percentages. We also report the features of children with preoperative anxiety. Results: A total of 96 children were included in the study. The median anxiety score of children was 26.60 (23.3-41.66). The incidence of preoperative anxiety in pediatric patients was 42.7% (41 cases). The median age of children having preoperative anxiety was lower 55 (44-69.5) months vs 67 (35-90) months in children without anxiety. Sixty-three percent of children with preoperative anxiety underwent ENT and dental surgeries. Conclusion: We found an incidence of 42.7% of preoperative anxiety in children undergoing surgery at our hospital.

Abstract:
Spirituality and nursing have been intertwined from the beginning of the profession; however, there is little evidence that clearly defines spiritual nursing care and no standardized practices that can be included in the routine preoperative plan of care for patients undergoing invasive surgical procedures. The purpose of this project was to conduct a systematic review of the literature to define spiritual care and identify specific spiritual nursing care interventions. The biopsychosocial model, Narayanasamy's transcultural care practice model, and Watson's theory of human caring provided the theoretical framework for the project. MEDLINE, PubMed, Wiley online library, SCIENCE, WOS, Cochrane, and SciELO databases were searched for the literature review. Keywords and phrases used included spirituality, spiritual nursing care, holistic health practices, inpatient, hospital, and preoperative care. The Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) II tool was used for data analysis. Interventions found in the literature to be supportive of spirituality included healing presence; providing effective communication; praying with the patient and family or facilitating other religious rituals; using the therapeutic self to be with the patient; listening to and exploring the patients' spiritual perspectives; and showing support and empathy through patient-centered caring, nurturing spirituality, and creating a healing environment. Employing these nursing actions might promote positive social change by contributing to a sense of well-being as patients find meaning and purpose in their illness and life overall, which will promote improved surgical outcomes and better patient satisfaction with care.

Abstract:
Bakgrund: Preoperativ fasta är nödvändigt innan anestesi för att reducera magsäckens innehåll och därmed minska risken för aspiration. Trots att internationella riktlinjer rekommenderar två timmars fasta för klar vätska är det många sjukhus som fortfarande använder sig av rutinmässig praxis att låta patienter fasta från midnatt. Detta kan innebära en onödigt lång fasta som ger patienten komplikationer i form av sekundära biverkningar och insulinresistens. Syfte: Att undersöka preoperativ omvårdnad i samband med fasta inför kirurgi. Metod: En litteraturstudie med beskrivande design bestående av 14 utvalda originalartiklar från databaserna Pubmed och Cinahl användes. Den teoretiska referensramen för denna studie var Katie Erikssons omvårdnadsteori gällande förståelse av lidande och lidandets drama. Resultat: Många patienter fastade längre än American Society of anesthesiologists (ASAs) rekommenderade riktlinjer. Att fasta längre än två timmar innan operation minskade inte risken för aspiration och gav inte någon mindre volym av magsäckens innehåll hos patienterna. Att ge patienter kolhydratrik dryck innan operation ökade patienternas pre- och postoperativa välbefinnande och innebar inga risker. Slutsats: Genom ett mer flexibelt arbetssätt vid planerad operation kan längden på fastan anpassas efter patientens individuella behov. I samband med planerad kirurgi kan kolhydratrik dryck vara ett bra komplement vid fasta för att minska patientens lidande. Sjuksköterskan är omvårdnadsansvarig och ska arbeta evidensbaserat samt se till patienternas bästa och tillgodose deras behov. Sjuksköterskan kan använda detta som underlag för att minska lidandet i samband med fastan.
Background: Preoperative fasting is necessary before anesthesia to reduce gastric contents and decrease the risk of aspiration. Although international guidelines recommend two hours fasting of liquids, many hospitals still practice nil-by-mouth after midnight. This might give an unnecessarily prolonged fasting which give the patient discomfort and insulin resistance. Aim:  To examine preoperative care in connection with fasting prior to surgery. Method: A literature study with descriptive design based on 14 original articles selected from the databases Pubmed and Cinahl was used. The theoretical frame of reference for this study was Katie Eriksson's nursing theory regarding understanding of suffering and the drama of suffering. Results: Many patients fast longer than American Society of anesthesiologists (ASAs) recommended guidelines. Fasting more than two hours before surgery did not decrease the risk of aspiration and did not decrease the gastric volume. To give patients a high carbohydrate drink before surgery increased the patient's pre- and postoperative comfort. Conclusion: Through a more flexible working method during the planned operation, the length of the fast can be adapted to the patient's individual needs. In conjunction with planned surgery, carbohydrate-rich beverages can be a good complement to fasting to reduce the patient's suffering. The nurse is responsible for nursing care and should work evidence-based and ensure the patients' best and meet their needs. The nurse can use this as a basis for reducing the suffering associated with fasting.

In surgical practice, preoperative testing involves a certain number of routine tests, among them chest X-rays, electrocardiography, urine analysis and blood tests. This study sought to characterize routine preoperative blood tests performed at DGMH. This was a descriptive cross-sectional prospective study of preoperative blood tests conducted at the Medical Laboratory of DGMH. Patient files and their laboratory reports of tests performed during a 2-month period were examined for the extraction and collation of data. Of the 246 patients’ records included in the analysis, there were 130 male and 116 female patients but the distribution differed based on the age, since in female patients, the majority of them were older than 40 years. The main findings were that the most commonly done tests at DGMH are hemoglobin, FBC electrolytes, creatinine, glucose and partial prothrombin test. The average number of tests per patient was 3 and their cost on average was R224 per patient. The results of these tests impacted on the management of patients in that 11.4% of elective surgeries were postponed. The tests that were associated with postponement were low values of HB. In conclusion, hemoglobin was the common laboratory test and the only one that had significant impact as it led to the postponement of planned surgical procedures. This test may be recommended for routine testing before surgical operations.

Abstract:
Background/Problem: Preoperative anxiety is common with patients undergoing surgery. The anxiety may be associated with severe postoperative complications which are costly and sometimes life threatening. It is therefore necessary to investigate what kind of interventions could be valid and effective to prevent or treat preoperative anxiety. Aim: This study aims to describe the nursing care interventions that proves to prevent and/or relieve preoperative anxiety within surgical patients. Method: A literature search was made within PubMed and Cinhal databases. Both randomised controlled studies (RCT) and Quasi-experimental studies were included. A total of 388 articles were screened and 13 articles included in the study. Results: All interventions had a significant lowering effect on the preoperative anxiety within surgical patients but in different levels. Relaxation exercises showed the most effective to lower the preoperative anxiety. Thereafter nature sounds and acupressure showed to have a similar lowering effect. Calm music generally showed a moderate effect. Acupuncture, information and education showed a similar varying low effect. Conclusion: Interventions like relaxation exercises, listening to nature sounds, acupressure, acupuncture, listening to music, giving information and education can all be valid and effective nursing care interventions which can easily be used and implemented by nurses in the preoperative care.
Bakgrund/Problemformulering: Preoperativ oro är vanligt förekommande hos patienter som ska genomgå operation. Denna oro kan vara förknippad med eller innebära en ökad risk för allvarliga postoperativa konsekvenser vilka är kostsamma och ibland livshotande. Det är därför av vikt att undersöka vilka typer av interventioner som kan vara validerade och effektiva för att förebygga eller lindra preoperativ oro. Syfte: Syftet med studien är att beskriva de omvårdnadsåtgärder som bevisas förebygga och lindra preoperativ oro för kirurgiska patienter. Metod: En litteraturstudie utfördes inom databaserna PubMed och Cinahl. Både randomiserade kontrollerade studier (RCT) och quasi-experimentella studier inkluderades. Totalt undersöktes 388 artiklar och 13 artiklar inkluderades i studien. Resultat: Alla interventioner hade en signifikant minskande effekt för att minska preoperativ oro hos kirurgpatienter men i olika grad. Avslappningsövningar visade sig ha störst effekt för att minska preoperativ oro. Därefter redovisades naturljud och akupressur vilka hade en liknande god effekt. Lugn musik hade generellt en måttlig effekt. Akupunktur, Information och undervisning hade en varierande låg effekt. Slutsats: Interventioner som avslappningsövningar, att lyssna på naturljud, akupressur, akupunktur, att lyssna på musik, informationsgivning och undervisning kan alla vara adekvata och effektiva omvårdnadsåtgärder som lätt kan användas och implementeras av sjuksköterskor i den preoperativa vården.

Abstract:
Bakgrund: Föräldrar vars barn ska genomgå anestesi och operation önskar stödja barnet på bästa sätt inför detta. Samtidigt är de själva ofta oroliga. Oro hos föräldrar och oro hos barn tycks hänga samman, likväl som en lugn förälder tycks kunna vara till hjälp för ett oroligt barn. Syfte: Att belysa vad anestesisjuksköterskan kan bidra med för att svara an till föräldrars önskan att vara till stöd för sitt barn under den pre- och intraoperativa perioden, och därmed främja hälsa och välbefinnande hos dem båda. Metod: Litteraturöversikt med kvalitativ ansats. Resultat: Resultatet presenteras under två huvudteman med fyra underteman vardera. Huvudtemat Att vara belyser anestesisjuksköterskans sätt att vara emot föräldrarna, medan Att göra belyser dennes konkreta handlingar. Slutsats: Anestesisjuksköterskan kan genom god omvårdnad öka föräldrarnas möjlighet att stödja sitt barn pre- och intraoperativt.
Background: Parents whose child is going to be anesthetized and operated wish to support the child for the upcoming events in the best way possible. At the same time they often experience anxiety.

Abstract:
SAMMANFATTNING Bakgrund: Preoperativ fasta har under många år varit en traditionell metod för att minska risken för aspiration medan patienten är under generell anestesi och för att eliminera risken för postoperativ illamående och kräkningar. Studier visar att trots riktlinjer och rekommendationer gällande preoperativ fasta fastar många patienter i onödan i flera dagar än nödvändigt. Detta kan orsaka skador och obehag hos patienten som till exempel: törst, huvudvärk, illamående, svaghet och trötthet. Syfte: Syfte med denna studie var att undersöka hur patienter upplever fasta mer än 12 timmar innan en akutoperation. Metod: Arbetet hade en kvalitativ ansats där 12 patienter som genomgått akut operation inkluderades. Data samlades in genom en semistrukturerad intervju, med hjälp av öppna frågor enligt en intervjuguide och analyserades med hjälp av manifest innehållsanalys enligt Graneheim och Lundman. Resultat: Analyserna resulterade i fyra kategorier: Preoperativ information, upplevelse av fasta, hantering av preoperativ fasta och upplevelse av preoperativ tid och åtta underkategorier: Bristfällig information, tillräcklig information, bristfällig kunskap trots tidigare vårderfarenhet, fysisk påverkan, psykisk påverkan, strategi, väntetid och fastetid. Slutsats: Deltagarna i studien upplevde brist på information och kunskaper om den preoperativa fastans betydelse. Studien visade att patienterna som väntade på akut operation på akutvårdsavdelning fastade längre än nödvändigt trots riktlinjer och rekommendationer gällande preoperativ fasta från Svensk förening för Anestesi och Intensivvård (SFAI). Patienterna som genomgått apendectomi fastade mellan 13,5-28 timma (M=22,2), medan de som hade genomgått kolecystectomi fastade mellan 12-48 timmar (M=25,6). Detta orsakade fysiskt och psykiskt obehag hos patienterna.
ABSTRACT Background: Preoperative fasting for many years has been a traditional method of reducing the risk of aspiration while the patient is under general anesthesia, and eliminating the risk of postoperative nausea and vomiting. Studies indicate that despite guidelines regarding preoperative fasting, many patients fast longer than necessary. This can cause damage and discomfort for patients including: thirst, headache, nausea, weakness and fatigue. Aim: The aim of the current study was to investigate patients’ experience of fasting more than 12 hours before emergency surgery. Method: The study had a qualitative approach. In total, 12 patients who underwent emergency surgery were included. Data was collected through a semi-structured interview, using open-ended questions following an interview guide. Collected data were analyzed using manifest content analysis according to Graneheim and Lundman. Result:  Analyzes resulted in four categories: Preoperative information, experience of fasting, handles preoperative fasting and experiences of the preoperative period and eight subcategories: Lack of information, enough information, lack of knowledge despite previous nursing experience, physical impact, psychological impact, strategy, waiting time and fasting time. Conclusion: Participants in the study experienced lack of information and knowledge of the preoperative fasting importance. This study showed that patients,  waiting for emergency surgery in the emergency department fast longer than necessary despite existing guidelines and recommendations of the Swedish Society of Anaesthesia and Intensive care (SFAI) regarding preoperative fasting. Patients who have undergone appendectomy fasted between 13.5 to 28 hours (M = 22.2), whereas those which had undergone cholecystectomy attached between 12-48 hours (M = 25.6). This caused experience of physical and psychological discomfort for the patients.

Abstract:
Bakgrund: Forskning tyder på att preoperativ ångest utgör ett vanligt förekommande problem hos patienter som skall genomgå kirurgi. Flera studier visade att den kan leda till olika postoperativa komplikationer. Det är sjuksköterskans ansvar att både identifiera och åtgärda ångest inför ett kirurgiskt ingrepp. Syfte: Att beskriva vilka icke-farmakologiska interventioner finns för att minska preoperativ ångest hos vuxna patienter. Metod: Studiens design var en litteraturöversikt som genomfördes enligt Fribergs metodbeskrivning. Litteraturöversikten bygger på tolv kvantitativa studier publicerade mellan 01/2007 och 09/2017. Sökningar utfördes i databaserna CINAHL Complete och PubMed. Resultat: Denna litteraturöversikt tyder på att det finns flera, olika interventioner som kan användas som komplement till farmakologisk behandling för att effektivt minska preoperativ ångest hos vuxna patienter. Ångest i den preoperativa fasen kan lindras om patienten får en utökad, individuell anpassad information. Ångest kan också minskas om patienten får ett känslomässigt stöd eller hjälp med att finna tröst i andlighet/religion. Litteraturöversiktens resultat tyder dessutom på att ångestnivå kan sänkas med hjälp av en lugn musik, naturljud eller vägledd dagdröm. Det framkom även att den preoperativa ångesten kan minskas genom avslappningsövningar, aromaterapi, akupunktur och zonterapi. Endast en fotografisk utställning har inte visats vara effektiv för att minska ångest i det preoperativa skedet. Diskussion: Resultatet av litteraturöversikten har diskuterats i relation till sjuksköterskans ansvarsområde. Resultatdiskussionen koncentreras kring praktiska frågor gällande implementering av de icke-farmakologiska metoderna i vården. Jean Watsons teori om mänsklig omsorg utgjorde översiktens teoretiska referensram som hjälpte författaren i resultatdiskussionen.
Background: Research indicates that preoperative anxiety is a widespread problem among patients undergoing surgery. It has been shown in several studies that preoperative anxiety may lead to different postoperative complications. It is the nurse's responsibility to identify and to reduce patients' anxiety. Aim: To describe which non-pharmacological interventions are available to reduce preoperative anxiety in adult patients. Method: The study was designed as a literature review performed according to the Fribergs method. This literature review is based on twelve quantitative articles published between 01/2007 and 09/2017. The search for the articles was conducted in CINAHL Complete database and PubMed database. Results: The result of this review indicates that there are several, different interventions that may be used in addition to pharmacological treatment in order to effectively reduce preoperative anxiety in adult patients. Anxiety in the preoperative phase can be alleviated by providing the patient with information tailored to the individual's needs. Anxiety can also be reduced by providing emotional support or by helping the patient to find comfort in spirituality/religion. The result of this review indicates moreover that the level of anxious can be minimized by listening to soothing music, nature sounds or guided imagery. Relaxation exercises, aromatherapy, acupuncture and reflexology were also found to reduce preoperative anxiety. Only the photographic display was not found to be effective in reducing anxiety in the preoperative phase. Discussion: The result of this review was discussed in relation to the nurse's responsibilities. The discussion of the results was focused on the practical issues about implementation of the non-pharmacological methods in the clinical practice. Jean Watson's Theory of Human Caring was used as a theoretical framework that helped the author in results analysis.

Abstract:

The aim of this study was to investigate for how long patients fast before thoracic surgery, plastic surgery and ear, nose and throat surgery, at the University hospital of  Uppsala, and what knowledge patients have about fasting and how they get affected by it. 30 patients were interviewed, 10 patients at each ward, according to a questionnaire. Data processing was performed with SPSS. There was no difference in fasting time for solids between the wards but the mean fasting time was 14 hours. In the thoracic ward patients fasted from liquids considerably longer than in the other wards. The mean fasting time in the thoracic ward was 12 hours compared to six hours in the ear, nose and throat ward and five hours in the plastic surgery ward. Only 27 % (8/30) of the patients knew the reason for fasting before anesthesia. Patients experienced significantly more thirst, nausea and hunger after than before surgery but no difference was seen between men and women. Patients from the thoracic surgery ward experienced more nausea before surgery than the others. The conclusion is that the compliance to the recommendations for preoperative fasting is insufficient and doesn´t comply to the patients needs.

Abstract:
This study investigates the impact of preoperative nutritional therapy on the prognosis of patients undergoing surgical procedures. The growing evidence on the relationship between nutritional status prior to surgery and postoperative outcomes highlights the relevance of specific nutritional strategies as an integral part of perioperative care. The literature review covers clinical studies, systematic reviews and meta-analyses, aiming to understand the benefits of preoperative nutritional therapy. Compiled results reveal positive associations between improved nutritional status prior to surgery and reduced postoperative complications, including infections, length of stay and faster recovery. The analysis highlights the importance of individualized approaches, considering the specific nutritional needs of each patient and the type of surgical procedure. Furthermore, the mechanisms through which nutritional therapy can modulate the immune response, reduce oxidative stress and promote healing are discussed, positively impacting the postoperative course. Although limitations, such as variability in nutritional therapy protocols and definition of outcomes, are recognized, the results suggest that optimizing preoperative nutritional status may represent an effective strategy in improving surgical prognosis.

Full text
Abstract:
Background: To our knowledge, no authors have published the implant of a three-component device under local anesthesia, until now. The aim of this paper is to report this particular case focusing on its technical and anatomical details. Materials and Methods: A 60-years-old man presented to our attention due to erectile dysfunction unresponsive to PDE-I oral and alprostadil intracavernosal therapies, following a motorbike trauma accident with multiple lumbosacral vertebral fracture and incomplete S2-S4 spinal cord injury. After the trauma accident, the patient immediately underwent spinal surgery with lumbosacral vertebral plate positioning. During knee surgery for postural disorders following the previous trauma accident, the patient had an intraoperative heart arrest which required cardiopulmonary resuscitation and post-cardiac arrest care. Considering the high surgical risk due to the previous heart arrest and the inability to perform a spinal anesthesia due to the previous lumbosacral vertebral plate positioning, we proposed to implant the three-component device under completely local anesthesia. Results: Preoperative antibiotic prophylaxis was performed. Local anesthesia was administered using an 80-20 mixture of 7.5% ropivacaine and 2% mepivacaine with adrenaline for both the penoscrotal and abdominal surgical sites. A three-component (AMS 700™ CX with MS pump™) prosthesis was implanted with no complications. The patient didn’t experience any pain during the procedure. The follow-up was uneventful. One month after surgery, the patient reported a satisfactory sexual intercourse. Conclusion: Our experience demonstrates that a three-component penile prosthesis implantation under completely local anesthesia can be successfully performed with satisfactory outcomes. However, particular attention should be paid to some anatomical details, the anesthetic procedure and patient’s counselling. This technique could be addressed to those patients with comorbidities which contraindicated spinal or general anesthesia or in patients unwilling to undergo these types of anesthesia.

Abstract:
Review question / Objective: This systematic review aims to compare the effects of different drugs to reduce postoperative inflammatory complications (pain, edema, and trismus) after mandibular third molar surgery by applying a frequentist network meta-analysis approach. To this end, the proposed study will answer the following questions: 1) Among diverse drugs currently available, which postoperative pharmacological regimen is the most efficient to reduce pain after mandibular third molar surgery? 2) Is the pre-emptive analgesia effective in reducing pain immediately after the mandibular third molar surgery? In this case, 3) Which preoperative pharmacological regimen is the most efficient? 4) Among diverse corticosteroids currently available, what is the best option to control the edema induced by the surgery? 5) What is the optimal dose and route of administration of corticosteroids prior to mandibular third molar surgery to control the pain/ edema induced by the surgery? Condition being studied: Inflammatory complications after mandibular third molar surgery (Pain, edema, and trismus).

Intraoperatively Diagnosed Double Cystic Duct During Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy: A Case Report of a Surgical Dilemma for the Operating Surgeons. Science Repository, April 2024. http://dx.doi.org/10.31487/j.ajscr.2024.01.04.

Full text
Abstract:
Introduction and Importance: A double cystic duct with a single gallbladder is one of the extremely uncommon variations of the cystic duct and only a few cases were reported in literature. Case Presentation: A 33-year-old female, with an unremarkable medical history, presented to the emergency department with a 2-day history of right upper quadrant abdominal (RUQ) pain. The abdominal pain was gradually increasing in intensity radiating to the back and was associated with anorexia and multiple episodes of vomiting. Abdominal examination revealed RUQ pain and tenderness. Abdominal ultrasonography was performed, showing a markedly distended gallbladder with evidence of a few calculi one of which was impacted at the neck. laparoscopic cholecystectomy was done within 2 days of admission during which another luminal structure was identified that suggested a double cystic duct. Clinical Discussion: Anomalies of the biliary tree are common with the classical anatomical picture presenting in only 33% of cholecystectomy cases. However, the presence of a double cystic duct is a rare variation, especially in the case of a single gallbladder. The identification of such anomaly can be achieved preoperatively using imaging modalities or it can be identified during the surgical procedure itself. such identification reduces the chances of postoperative comorbidities. Conclusion: Pre-operative identification of biliary tract anomalies by different imaging modalities is limited. Hence the importance of cautiousness and achieving a proper critical view of safety intra-operatively to prevent possible complications intra- and post-operatively. Our case report emphasizes the diagnostic and surgical challenges of the double cystic duct.

International Journal of Surgery, May 2024. http://dx.doi.org/10.60122/j.ijs.2024.20.03.

Full text
Abstract:
Objective: Investigate the impact of diaphragm sellae competence on surgical outcomes and risk factors for postoperative hypothalamic injury (HI) in patients undergoing endoscopic transsphenoidal surgery (ETS) for infra-diaphragmatic craniopharyngiomas (ICs). Methods: A retrospective analysis of 54 consecutive patients (2016-2023) with ICs treated by ETS was conducted. All tumors originated from the sellar region inferior to the diaphragm sellae and were classified into two subtypes in terms of diaphragm sellae competence: IC with competent diaphragm sellae (IC-CDS) and IC with incompetent diaphragm sellae (IC-IDS). Clinical features, intraoperative findings, and follow-up data were compared between subtypes. Postoperative HI was assessed using a magnetic resonance imaging-based scoring system. Results: Fifty-four patients (29 males, 25 females) were included in this study, with 12 (22.2%) under 18 years old. Overall, 35 cases were IC-CDS, while 19 were IC-IDS. Compared with IC-CDS, patients with IC-IDS tended to have hormone hypofunction before surgery (p = 0.03). Tumor volume in IC-IDS group (9.0 ± 8.6 cm3) was also higher than that in IC-CDS group (3.3 ±3.4 cm, p = 0.011). Thirty-seven patients underwent standard endoscopic transsphenoidal approach (SEA) and 17 underwent an extended endoscopic transsphenoidal approach (EEA). Gross total resection (GTR) was achieved in 50 cases (92.6%). Postoperative CSF leak was observed in four patients (7.4%). Permanent diabetes insipidus (DI) occurred in 13 patients (27.7%), six in IC-CDS and seven in IC-IDS. Postoperative HI occurred in 38.9% of patients. Univariate analysis revealed that large tumor size (p = 0.014), prior hypopituitarism (p = 0.048) and IC-IDS (p < 0.001) were significantly associated with postoperative HI. Multivariate analysis revealed that IC- IDS was the sole predictor of postoperative HI. Conclusion: To our knowledge, this is the largest case series in the literature to describe IC resected by endoscopic surgery in a single institution. Classification based on diaphragm sellae competence highlights distinct clinical features and surgical outcomes between IC-CDS and IC-IDS subtypes. Notably, IC-IDS is an independent risk factor for postoperative HI. Preoperative identification of subtype can guide surgical strategy and potentially minimize complications.
