The Enhanced Recovery After Surgery protocol for the perioperative management of pituitary neuroendocrine tumors/pituitary adenomas

Abstract

The introduction of a standardized ERAS protocol for the perioperative management of patients with PitNET allowed the authors to improve the multidisciplinary management of these patients. With the application of simple cost-effective interventions and with the avoidance of unnecessary measures, gains were made in terms of early mobilization and feeding, thereby resulting in a shorter in-hospital stay.
