Abstract

Symptomatic Rathke's cleft cysts are uncommon. We present a case with suprasellar extension manifested by hypopituitarism and visual disturbances. The treatment was trans-sphenoidal evacuation and partial removal of the capsule. We suggest that the trans-sphenoidal approach to these lesions is usually adequate and that radical removal of the capsule is not necessary.

摘要

有症状的拉克氏囊肿并不常见。我们报告一例伴有鞍上扩展的病例，表现为垂体功能减退和视觉障碍。治疗方法是经蝶窦引流并部分切除囊肿包膜。我们认为，经蝶窦入路处理这些病变通常足够，无需彻底切除囊肿包膜。
