NCT03280849

Brief Summary

A 65 year old female participant , right handed, started with progressive bilateral visual loss in her temporal field, over 10 months, the participant underwent an MRI and it was found a sellar lesion that compressed the optic chiasm, an endoscopic endonasal transsphenoidal surgery was done for the resection of the lesion, using a novel bilaminar chitosan scaffold to assist the closure of the sellar floor. After a follow up of 2 years the participant returned to its normal visual function, without evidence of the sellar lesion on the postoperative MRI, and without complications.

Study Arms (1)

Patient with bilaminar chitosan implant

EXPERIMENTAL

A 65 year old woman, right handed, started with progressive bilateral visual loss in her temporal field, over 10 months, she underwent an MRI and it was found a sellar lesion that compressed the optic chiasm, an endoscopic endonasal transsphenoidal surgery was done for the resection of the lesion, using a novel bilaminar chitosan scaffold to assist the closure of the sellar floor.

Other: Implant of bilaminar chitosan scaffold

Interventions

The patient underwent endoscopic endonasal transsphenoidal surgery for resection of the sellar lesion, under the direct visualization, the lesion appeared redish and soft with moderately bleeding, a sample was taken for pathology and the remaining is extracted without complications, then the scaffold is implanted in the site of the bone defect in the sphenoid sinus, due to its moldable nature, it was easily set, covering the entire extension of the defect, a fat graft was set in the sphenoid sinus covering the bilaminar chitosan membrane, then fibrin sealant was used for hemostatic control and a nasal packing was set in both nostrils for finalize the procedure.

Also known as: Endoscopic endonasal transphenoidal surgery
Patient with bilaminar chitosan implant
