| Περίληψη: | Purpose: Diabetes mellitus (DM) may affect postoperative recovery, but evidence in pituitary tumor surgery remains limited. We investigated the association between DM and short-term outcomes after transsphenoidal surgery for pituitary tumors. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed adults in the Taiwan Pituitary Tumor Registry who underwent transsphenoidal surgery for benign pituitary tumors between 2009 and 2019. Patients were categorized into DM and non-DM groups. Associations between DM, prolonged length of hospital stays (LOS), 14-day readmission rate, and complications were determined using regression analyses. Tumor-type stratified analyses and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analyses of glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), fasting glucose, and random glucose were also performed. Results: Data of 970 patients were analyzed, of whom 144 (15%) had DM. DM was not significantly associated with prolonged LOS or 14-day readmission, but was significantly associated with higher odds of CSF leak (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] = 3.35, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.18-9.51, p = 0.023) and antibiotic use for ≥ 7 days (aOR = 5.41, 95% CI: 1.13-25.87, p = 0.034) in age-adjusted analysis. In the non-functioning tumor subgroup, the association with antibiotic use for ≥ 7 days persisted (aOR 7.37, 95% CI 1.46-37.12), whereas the association with CSF leak was not statistically significant. Among patients with DM and non-functioning tumors, glycemic markers showed apparent discrimination for postoperative infection and CSF leak, with area under the curve values ranging from 0.83 to 0.93. Conclusions: DM was associated with selected short-term complications after transsphenoidal surgery, particularly CSF leak and prolonged antibiotic use. These exploratory findings require confirmation in larger prospective studies with comprehensive surgical data. (© 2026.
