In this article, we present a 31-year-old female who presented with intermittent headache and oligomenorrhea of over 10 years' duration. Imaging revealed a large suprasellar mass with sellar extension. The patient underwent an endoscopic endonasal trans-sphenoidal surgery to resection of the mass. Clinical, radiological, and operative findings from this patient were initially considered to be Rathke's cleft cyst (RCC). However, postoperative histological examinations revealed a mature cystic teratoma. No radiotherapy was performed after surgery. At the most recent follow-up, approximately 1 year later, the patient is doing well with no headache and no recurrence of the teratoma.
本文报道了一位 31 岁女性患者，她因间歇性头痛和超过 10 年的月经稀少就诊。影像学检查显示鞍上有一个大的肿块，并向鞍内延伸。患者接受了内镜经鼻蝶窦入路肿瘤切除术。该患者的临床、影像学和手术发现最初被认为是 Rathke 裂囊肿（RCC）。然而，术后组织学检查显示为成熟囊性畸胎瘤。术后未行放疗。在最近的随访中，约 1 年后，患者头痛症状消失，无畸胎瘤复发，情况良好。
