  Maisonneuve-Rosemont Hospital is a teaching hospital affiliated with the University of Montréal.We performed a retrospective review of all cases of transsphenoidal surgery performed since 2004.Our goal in reviewing our results is to identify sources of failure and factors that relate to complications.We identified 65 patients with sellar lesions and deleted 8 patients from the list who were not operated by the 2 principal authors.We focused on examining patients who had reoperations, residual tumor, and deterioration in vision, CSF leak and/or meningitis, and mortality in order to identify areas for improvement.
