  • Title: Intrasellar tuberculoma: case report.
    Author: Esposito V, Fraioli B, Ferrante L, Palma L.
    Journal: Neurosurgery; 1987 Nov; 21(5):721-3. PubMed ID: 3696408.
    Abstract:
    We report a unique case of exclusively intrasellar tuberculoma. The patient was operated on by the transsphenoidal approach, which allowed total removal of the lesion and prevented cerebrospinal fluid contamination. After histological diagnosis, the patient was treated with isoniazid, 300 mg daily for 3 months, as prophylaxis against tuberculous meningitis.
