Abstract

The authors report an unusual case of adamantinomatous craniopharyngioma occurring in isolation in the cerebellopontine angle of a 12-year-old female. The patient presented with a 1-year history of nausea, vomiting, and headache. MRI revealed a left cerebellopontine angle tumor without connection to the suprasellar space. Following near-total resection, histological review confirmed the lesion as an adamantinomatous craniopharyngioma. This is only the third published report of craniopharyngioma occurring in isolation in the cerebellopontine angle. The case report and a brief review of the literature are presented.

摘要

作者报告了一例罕见的成釉细胞瘤型颅咽管瘤，该肿瘤孤立发生于一名12岁女性的桥小脑角。患者有1年的恶心、呕吐和头痛病史。MRI显示左侧桥小脑角有一肿瘤，与鞍上间隙无连接。在次全切除术后，组织学检查证实该病变为成釉细胞瘤型颅咽管瘤。这是仅有的第三篇关于孤立发生于桥小脑角的颅咽管瘤的发表报告。本文呈现了该病例报告及对文献的简要综述。
