Abstract

BACKGROUND: Postoperative cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leakage is the leading adverse event in transsphenoidal surgery. Intraoperative CSF (ioCSF) leakage is one of the most important predictive factors for postoperative CSF leakage. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of artificial intelligence (AI) models in predicting ioCSF.
