Abstract

The authors regret the following errors in the original article and provide the corrections below: 1. In Case Report 1, paragraph 4, we wrote: “Approximately 30 cc of fluid was successfully drained,” whereas it should have been 10–15 cc.2. In Case Report 1, paragraph 5, we mentioned “resolution of bitemporal hemianopia (Figures 1B, C)”, but the correct term should be “temporal hemianopia” because the visual impairment occurred in only one eye, while the other eye had functional blindness.3. In Case Report 2, paragraph 1, the correct contrast-enhanced MRI findings indicate a hemorrhagic pituitary macroadenoma, with differential diagnoses including pituitary abscess, infected Rathke's cleft cyst, and necrotic craniopharyngioma.4. Figure 1 caption correction:Fig. 1. Comparison of perimetry results before and after surgery in Case 1. (A) Preoperative visual field test of the right eye showing temporal hemianopia; the left eye showed functional blindness. (B) Visual field test one month after pituitary abscess drainage showing resolution of temporal hemianopia. (C) Visual field test three months after pituitary abscess drainage showing resolution of temporal hemianopia. OD: Right eye; OS: blind, light perception (-). 5. Figure 2B adjustment:We slightly adjusted the tumor position in Figure 2B for clarity.[Figure presented] 6. Figure 3 caption correction:Fig. 3. Intraoperative View. (A) Case 1: (A1) The suprasellar dura mater appears tense and bulging. (A2) Following dural incision, thick yellowish pus-like fluid with an approximate volume of 10-15 cc is observed. (A3) Post-evacuation of the abscess, a thin residual capsule remains adherent to critical structures in the sellar region. (B) Case 2: (B1) After dural incision, thick yellowish pus-like fluid with an approximate volume of 5 cc is observed. (B2) The abscess wall is thick and adherent to vital structures in the sellar region. (B3) Post-evacuation of the abscess, a residual abscess capsule remains. 7. Figure 5 adjustment: We enhanced the brightness of Figure 5 to improve visual clarity[Figure presented] The authors would like to apologise for any inconvenience caused.
