Abstract:
Craniopharyngioma is a rare benign intracranial tumor,and surgical removal is the primary treatment modality.However,due to the deep location of the tumor,its close relationship with the optic nerve,hypothalamic-pituitary axis and essential tissue and vascular structures,and its local invasiveness,treatment still poses numerous challenges.In recent years,there have been advancements in treating craniopharyngioma,including improvements in surgical techniques,equipment,and strategies such as neuroendoscopy,the introduction of novel treatment modalities such as targeted therapies,etc.This paper provides a comprehensive review of these developments.
