Xanthogranuloma, Rathke's Cyst, and Childhood Craniopharyngioma: Results of Prospective Multinational Studies of Children and Adolescents with Rare Sellar Malformations

Abstract

Treatment of choice in XG and RC is radical surgery. In CP involving hypothalamic structures, less radical surgical approaches preserving hypothalamic integrity are recommended. Due to frequent relapses, regular imaging during follow-up is recommended for CP and RC. Treatment of patients with sellar masses should be confined to experienced multidisciplinary teams.
