Papillary Craniopharyngioma of the Third Ventricle —Case Report—

A papillary craniopharyngioma localized in the third ventricle occurred in a 45-year-old male. The clinical presentation was unusual and the neuroradiological appearance resembled a choroid plexus papilloma of the third ventricle. The tumor originated from the right anterolateral wall of the third ventricle, forming a discrete mass with prominent papillae formation. The tumor was totally removed by a transcallosal approach without neurological or endocrinological sequelae.
