In the use of radiotherapy for pituitary tumors, high-dose irradiation applied to the pituitary from outside the body has been known for a number of years. Ithas been reported that instead of using high-dose irradiaton, but a very small amount of radioisotope has been used, inserted directly into the sella turcica.We encountered a 28-year-old male patient who had had transf rontal oraniotomy twice for pituitary tumor in the department of neurosurgery. The patient was subsequently referred to the department of otorhinolaryngology because the tumor recurred again. The sella was penetrated transsphenoidally and32P was inserted. This treatment was very effective, and the patient was cured.1. A ten-year follow-up revealed a very good outcome and no recurrence of tumor.2. This new treatment is easy to apply, safe effective and is considered to be particularly suitable for elderly or physically weak patients, patients with recurrence after craniotomy and those who are afraid of suragery.
