Preoperative and Postoperative Tinnitus in Patients with Sellar Masses: A Patient-Promoted Study
In this study, we found no association between tinnitus and (resection of) sellar masses. However, as the decrease in tinnitus prevalence was more pronounced in patients than in controls, and tinnitus resolved in 1 patient after resection of a giant nonfunctioning pituitary adenoma, and worsened in 2 patients with perioperative bleeding complications, tinnitus may be associated with sellar masses in selected cases.
