A series of 27 children with craniopharyngiomas is presented. All the craniopharyngiomas were detected by computed tomography, and radical total resection was attempted. Postoperative evaluations were done by a series of computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging scans. Twenty patients who had total resection confirmed by surgical and radiographic observations showed no recurrence during the follow-up period of from 1 to 12 years. It is emphasized that total resection using modern diagnostic and surgical methods is the mainstay for childhood craniopharyngiomas.
本文报告了27例颅咽管瘤患儿的病例系列。所有颅咽管瘤均通过计算机断层扫描检测到，并尝试进行根治性全切除。术后通过一系列计算机断层扫描和磁共振成像扫描进行评估。20例经手术和影像学观察证实为全切除的患者在1至12年的随访期内未出现复发。强调采用现代诊断和手术方法进行全切除是儿童颅咽管瘤治疗的主要手段。
