Most pituitary tumors can be removed transsphenoidally. The approach is through the sphenoid sinus, one of the facial air spaces behind the nose. Rarely, a craniotomy is required, where the skull is opened to reach the tumor.
Removing or reducing the pituitary tumor that causes acromegaly will reduce growth hormone levels and relieve the pressure caused by the tumor mass. Very rarely, a craniotomy (surgery that opens a section of the skull) may be needed to remove a tumor that cannot be removed through the sinuses.
