Disease relevance of Craniopharyngioma

 

Psychiatry related information on Craniopharyngioma

  • A 48-year-old man with a cystic craniopharyngioma developed hypersomnia, personality changes, memory impairment and thermal dysfunction following intracystic administration of bleomycin through an Ommaya reservoir after partial removal of the tumour [6].
 

High impact information on Craniopharyngioma

  • We studied insulin-like growth factors (IGF) I and II, prolactin, and the insulin response to arginine in 19 children with craniopharyngioma and documented growth hormone deficiency [7].
  • We have reported previously that alterations to beta-catenin occur frequently in adamantinomatous craniopharyngioma [8].
  • Baseline characteristics and response to 2 years of growth hormone (GH) replacement of hypopituitary patients with GH deficiency due to adult-onset craniopharyngioma in comparison with patients with nonfunctioning pituitary adenoma: data from KIMS (Pfizer International Metabolic Database) [9].
  • Relevant decreases in height sd score (SDS) started at 10-12 months of age and persisted until diagnosis of childhood craniopharyngioma [10].
  • Defect in epinephrine production in children with craniopharyngioma: functional or organic origin [11]?
