Transient delayed postoperative hyponatremia (DPH) after transsphenoidal surgery (TSS) is common and can have potentially devastating consequences. However, the true prevalence of transient symptomatic and asymptomatic DPH has not been studied in a large patient cohort with close and accurate follow-up. A retrospective analysis of a single-institution prospective database was conducted; all patients undergoing TSS for lesions involving the pituitary gland were followed up in a multidisciplinary neuroendocrine clinic, and demographic, imaging, and clinical data were prospectively collected. Patients were examined preoperatively and followed up postoperatively in a standardized fashion, and their postoperative sodium levels were measured at Weeks 1 and 2 postoperatively. Levels of hyponatremia were rated as mild (serum sodium concentration 130-134 mEq/L), moderate (125-129 mEq/L), or severe (< 125 mEq/L). Routine clinical questionnaires were administered at all postoperative office visits. Postoperative hyponatremia was analyzed for correlations with demographic and clinical features and with immediate postoperative physiological characteristics. Over a 4-year interval, 373 procedures were performed in 339 patients who underwent TSS for sellar and parasellar lesions involving the pituitary gland. The mean (± SD) age of patients was 48 ± 18 years; 61.3% of the patients were female and 46.1% were obese (defined as a body mass index BMI ≥ 30). The overall prevalence of DPH within the first 30 days postoperatively was 15.0%; 7.2% of the patients had mild, 3.8% moderate, and 3.8% severe hyponatremia. The incidence of symptomatic hyponatremia requiring hospitalization was 6.4%. The Fisher exact test detected a statistically significant association of DPH with female sex (p = 0.027) and a low BMI (p = 0.001). Spearman rank correlation detected a statistically significant association between BMI and nadir serum sodium concentration (r = 0.158, p = 0.002) and an inverse association for age (r = -0.113, p = 0.031). Multivariate analyses revealed a positive correlation between postoperative hyponatremia and a low BMI and a trend toward association with age; there were no associations between other preoperative demographic or perioperative risk factors, including immediate postoperative alterations in serum sodium concentration. Patients were treated with standardized protocols for hyponatremia, and DPH was not associated with permanent morbidity or mortality. Delayed postoperative hyponatremia was a common result of TSS; a low BMI was the only clear predictor of which patients will develop DPH. Alterations in immediate postoperative sodium levels did not predict DPH. Therefore, an appropriate index of suspicion and close postoperative monitoring of serum sodium concentration should be maintained for these patients, and an appropriate treatment should be undertaken when hyponatremia is identified.
