Hospital procedural volume is inversely linearly associated with complications in endoscopic endonasal transsphenoidal resection of pituitary tumors
A multivariable analysis with institutional case volume as a continuous variable exhibited a linear association with risk of major and sellar tumor-specific complications specific to this patient population. Future studies are needed to further characterize the factors that contribute to this additive relationship.
