Study Summary

Omega-3 supplementation has been shown to have neuroprotective and potentially anti-inflammatory properties in both central and peripheral nerve injuries. The investigators are studying to see if omega-3 supplementation will affect olfactory (smell) function in patients with olfactory dysfunction following endoscopic removal of pituitary tumors.

Primary Outcome

The University of Pennsylvania Smell Identification Test (UPSIT) will be used to determine baseline olfactory function prior to sellar/parasellar tumor resection for all subjects.The test consists of a total of 40 "scratch and sniff" strips which the individual must select the correct odor from four choices. The test is scored out of 40 items. The number of correct answers regarding the smells being experienced is the subject's score. The higher the score the better the sense of smell.
