Giant Craniopharyngioma

Abstract The authors report 20 cases of giant craniopharyngioma in children operated on during the 6-year period from 1978 through 1984. The tumor size (maximal diameter) ranged from 5 to 11 cm. These patients presented with increased intracranial pressure, severe visual loss, and neurological and endocrinological deficits. Tumor growth had occurred in several directions, causing displacement of the circle of Willis, the optic apparatus, and the hypothalamus, as well as encroachment into the interpeduncular and prepontine cisterns and into the frontal, temporal, and posterior fossae. The surgical technique for total removal of these giant tumors in the last 10 cases is described. Emphasis is placed on the use of microsurgical technique during the first operation, close endocrinological follow-up, and early reevaluation by computed tomographic scanning.
