Abstract

The authors report their 10 year experience on postsurgical MRI of the sphenoidal region. All patients underwent MRI examination 4 days after surgery, then between 2 and 3 months and one year or more after surgery. The reproducibility of pulse sequences is mandatory to make a diagnosis of recurrent adenoma as early as possible.
