A case of pituitary adenoma operated on under hemodialysis was reported. The patient was a 43-year-old male who had been obliged to hemodialysis since April 1975 because of chronic renal failure. He was admitted in February 21, 1976 because of progressive visual symptoms. Neurological examination revealed decreased visual acuity and bitemporal hemianopsia. Radiology showed enlarged sella turcica and calcified mass in the suprasellar region. Laboratory examination disclosed severe anemia and the operation was postponed until the hematocrit improved up to 39% by blood transfusion. The operation was performed in March 17, 1976 under conventional GOF anesthesia. The tumor was covered by a calcified capsule and after nibbling off the calcified covering, the tumor was removed. Postoperative course was uneventful. Peritoneal dialysis was continued for three days immediately after operation. Urinary volume of the patient increased up to 600 ml per day after operation, probably due to the postoperative diabetes insipidus. The diabetes insipidus was rather favorable sequela in this case because the patient was released from the severe restriction of water intake.
