Comparison Between Bilateral Infraorbital Block Versus Intranasal Bupivacaine in Transsphenoidal Pituitary Adenoma Resection

Comparison Between Hemodynamic Effect of Bilateral Infraorbital Block Versus Intranasal Application of Bupivacaine in Patients Undergoing Transsphenoidal Pituitary Adenoma Resection.A Comparative Randomized Controlled Study

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 30 Dec 2025

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The study will evaluate the efficacy of bilateral infraorbital nerve block versus preoperative nasal packing with long-acting local anesthetic bupivacaine in term of maintaining hemodynamics intraoperative within 20% below baseline to achieve adequate hypotensive anesthesia and longer duration of postoperative analgesia up to 24 hours in patients undergoing transsphenoidal pituitary adenoma resection.
