Skull base tumour referrals

The team meets to carefully discuss all referrals to ensure that patients have the appropriate investigations and are seen by the most appropriate service.

Our Pituitary MDT is held every month, but patients are discussed and seen jointly on a weekly basis (Tuesdays) by our pituitary endocrinologists and surgeons.

For all emergency skull base and pituitary referrals we have a 24 hour on-call emergency Neurosurgical service.

Referrals should be made using the Online Acute Referral System (OARS).

If the referral is concerning a time critical transfer e.g. expanding mass lesion, if you are actively treating the patient e.g. trauma resuscitation, or you have difficulty using the system, please telephone the OUH switchboard and ask to be put through to the Neurosurgical Registrar on-call.
