Abstract
Operative exposure of the sellar region is most commonly indicated for the treatment of pituitary neoplasms; for the excision of other tumors such as tuberculum sellae meningiomas (see p. 210), craniopharyngiomas, and optic nerve gliomas (see p. 184); and for the surgical treatment of circle of Willis aneurysms.
