Abstract
An unusual association of diencephalic syndrome of emaciation, pituitary insufficiency for 2 years and suprasellar craniopharyngioma is described in a 45-year-old male. The tumour was found to be adherent to the anterior hypothalamic structures. Following partial excision, irradiation and hormonal replacement he regained his appetite, subcutaneous fat and body weight gradually.
