Treatment Options for Pituitary Adenoma
Patients have access to several treatment methods. The choice depends on the tumor's size, type, and location. The hospital is equipped with the latest technology, including the Gamma Knife and advanced surgical navigation systems.
Endoscopic Pituitary Surgery is a common minimally invasive approach. A specialist like Dr. Muhammed Arif Özbek performs it. The surgeon accesses the tumor through the nasal cavity, avoiding external cuts. A treatment package may cost around $15,000 and typically includes a 14-day hospital stay, pre-operative MRI, and physician consultations.
Gamma Knife Radiosurgery is a non-surgical option. It delivers precise, high-dose radiation to the tumor in a single session. This outpatient procedure typically runs about $6,000, which covers the treatment session and planning. It is suitable for certain smaller tumors.
Open Craniotomy may be used for larger or more complex tumors. This procedure involves a small opening in the skull for direct access. Hospitalization for this method is usually 5 to 7 days. Surgery packages for pituitary tumors can range from $15,000 to $20,000, often covering ICU and ward stays, surgeon fees, and anesthesia.
As a JCI-accredited facility with 25 operating theatres, Medipol Mega ensures high standards of care. To explore the best treatment plan for a pituitary adenoma, consulting with the hospital's specialist team is the recommended first step.
