Treatment of pituitary cysts at Top Ichilov is performed using innovative techniques developed based on the latest scientific achievements, such as transsphenoidal endoscopic removal of the cyst using special optical fibers or under the control of a powerful microscope. This operation is very precise, causes minimal trauma to the body, and ensures that nerve centers are not affected. Rehabilitation after it lasts less than after open surgery with craniotomy and is more painless.

Top Ichilov Clinic offers the most innovative treatment for pituitary cysts in Israel, with prices strictly adhering to the standards of the Israeli Medical Tourism Association (IMTA).

Effective Treatment of Pituitary Cysts in Israel Using Innovative Techniques

Studies of this condition have shown that conservative treatment of the neoplasm is ineffective. Israeli doctors have long abandoned the classical open surgery method still used in many countries. If the cyst is not accompanied by "aggressive" symptoms that worsen the patient's quality of life, only observation is prescribed. The presence of pronounced symptoms is an indication for surgical intervention. At Top Ichilov, minimally invasive transsphenoidal surgeries are performed using state-of-the-art endoscopic equipment. This method includes the following procedures:

  • The endoscope is inserted into the nasal cavity, through which the surgeon accesses the tumor;
  • Special microsurgical techniques are used to remove the cyst tissues;
  • The extracted cyst is sent for histological analysis to check for malignant cells.

This operation is minimally invasive and has high effectiveness with minimal risk of infection and complications. The recovery period after this surgical intervention takes just a few days.
