PREOPERATIVE GRADING SCALE TO PREDICT OUTCOMES BY ENDONASAL VS TRANSCRANIAL APPROACH FOR TUBERCULUM SELLAE MENINGIOMA

Stephen T. Magill, MD, PhD, of Northwestern Medicine Neurosurgery, and Michael W. McDermott, MD, validated the Magill-McDermott (M-M) grading scale for predicting visual outcome and extent of resection in tuberculum sellae meningiomas. They join the Congress of Neurological Surgeons to discuss their findings.
