Craniopharyngioma in a 58-Year-Old Adult Male: A Case Report and Review of Literature.

Curēus 2023 September
Craniopharyngiomas are benign epithelial tumors derived from the suprasellar region of the brain. The classical presentation of midline craniopharyngiomas includes bitemporal hemianopsia. However, atypical presentations can lead to diagnosis delays and challenges in managing associated visual and endocrine deficits. The persistence of visual deficits and tumor regrowth despite surgical intervention emphasizes the intricacies of craniopharyngioma management. This underscores the significance of timely diagnosis in patients with visual disturbances and hormonal imbalances related to mass effect. Here, we present a case of a unique and rare recurrent craniopharyngioma in a 58-year-old male, featuring progressive and atypical visual disturbances, along with the development of endocrine dysfunction following multiple tumor resections.
