A case of spinal seeding of craniopharyngioma mimicking as pituitary abscess

2026-09-01

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p> Craniopharyngioma is a rare, benign epithelial tumor typically confined to the sellar and suprasellar regions. Spinal dissemination is exceptionally uncommon, with only a few cases reported. We present a unique case of a 59-year-old female who initially presented with recurrent fever, headache, and imaging features suggestive of a pituitary abscess. Despite extensive anti-infective tr...
