ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the method and effect of microneurosurgery in the treatment of recurrent craniopharyngioma.Methods:The clinical data of 41 recurrent craniopharyngioma patients treated by microneurosurgery in Capital Medical University Sanbo Brain Hospitalfrom January 2018 to January 2022 were retrospectively analyzed.Results:Among the 41 patients, 38 cases were treated with the frontal basal interhemispheric approach and 3 cases with the translongitudinal fissure combined with the transSylvian fissure approach. Gross total resection was performed in 34 cases (82.9%) and subtotal resection in 7 cases (17.1%). One patient (2.4%) died of pulmonary embolism during perioperative period. All patients had transient electrolyte disorder after operation, and recovered within 3 months after treatment. All patients had endocrine dysfunction. After 3 months of hormone replacement therapy, 11 patients were cured. Visual acuity decreased in 3 cases after operation, and 2 cases improved after treatment.Conclusions:Surgical treatment of recurrent craniopharyngioma is very difficult, which is a great challenge for doctors and patients. However, through the individualized evaluation of the patients and the meticulous technique of the doctors during the operation, a satisfactory effect can be achieved post the operation of recurrent craniopharyngioma.
