Fig. 2

Case 1: Preoperative and postoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans of a 49-year-old female who underwent repeat endoscopic transsphenoidal surgery (ETS) due to recurrent Cushing’s disease and achieved remission. The patient underwent initial surgery 14 years ago at an outside institution. Preoperative T2 (A), and T1 contrast-enhanced (B) MRI scans demonstrate a right-sided pituitary adenoma. Postoperative T2 (C), and T1 contrast-enhanced (D) MRI scans demonstrate total resection of the adenoma. Case 2: Preoperative and postoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans of a 53-year-old female who underwent repeat endoscopic transsphenoidal surgery (ETS) due to recurrent Cushing’s disease and achieved remission. The patient underwent initial surgery 3 years ago at an outside institution. Preoperative T2 (E), and T1 contrast-enhanced (F) MRI scans demonstrate a left-sided pituitary adenoma, in close relation to ICA. Postoperative T2 (G), and T1 contrast-enhanced (H) MRI scans demonstrate total resection of the adenoma
