We report the case of a 10-year-old boy having a recurrent craniopharyngioma with nasopharyngeal extension during a course of growth hormone therapy, in whom the nasopharyngeal craniopharyngioma was totally resected despite its extensive growth by using a transbasal approach. There has been no evidence of recurrence during 6 years of follow-up. A literature review was made with respect to nasopharyngeal extension of craniopharyngiomas, and the efficacy of the transbasal approach for those tumors is discussed.
我们报告了一例10岁男孩的病例,该男孩在生长激素治疗过程中患有复发性颅咽管瘤并向鼻咽部扩展。尽管鼻咽部颅咽管瘤生长广泛,但通过经颅底入路将其完全切除。在6年的随访中没有复发迹象。我们对颅咽管瘤向鼻咽部扩展的情况进行了文献综述,并讨论了经颅底入路对这些肿瘤的疗效。
