Overview
Brief Summary
This is a prospective longitudinal study to access postoperative 2-year quality of life in patients who undergo endonasal endoscopic approach surgeries of the skull base.
Detailed Description
This is a prospective single-institution longitudinal study to access quality of life in patients who undergo endonasal endoscopic approach surgeries of the skull base. Patients will be followed before surgery and up to twenty-four months post-surgery. The primary goal of the study is to assess the alterations to patient quality of life following endoscopic endonasal surgery using modern sinonasal reconstruction techniques. Secondary goals are to better understand the time course of normal healing and patient/procedural risk factors associated with poorer quality of life outcomes.

Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
- •Patient is scheduled to undergo endoscopic endonasal surgery. Multiple, staged surgeries are not exclusionary
- •18 years of age or older
- •The subject must in the investigator's opinion, be psychosocially, mentally, and physically able to fully comply with this protocol including the required follow-up visits, the filling out of required forms, and have the ability to understand and give written informed consent

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
PROMIS-29 quality of life outcome measures for patients undergoing endoscopic endonasal surgeries.
Time Frame: 24-months post-operatively
This study aims to better understand the long-term overall quality of life of patients undergoing endoscopic endonasal surgery using modern sinonasal reconstruction techniques. The PROMIS-29 metric, an overall quality of life metric, will be used to better understand quality of life for patients undergoing this procedure.
Secondary Outcomes
- ASK Nasal-12 questionnaire used to measure normal time of healing for patients undergoing endoscopic endonasal surgery(24 months post-operatively)
- Number of patients with long-term quality of life risk factors using PROMIS-29(24 months post-operatively)
- Number of patients with long-term procedural comorbidities using ASK-Nasal 12.(24 months post-operatively)
