Most tumours were non\u2010functioning (71.7%), and most of these extended outside the sella turcica (86.8 vs 73.3% of functioning tumours). There was complete removal in 43.4% of patients and evidence of biochemical cure in 33.3% of functioning tumours, but readmission for further surgery was infrequent (5.7%). Persistent cerebrospinal fluid leakage, photophobia and deep venous thrombosis occurred in &lt;4% of patients. There were no deaths.
