Abstract

We present a rare case of a collision tumor involving a pituitary macroadenoma and adamantinomatous craniopharyngioma in a 49-year-old woman. The patient presented with a 2-year history of amenorrhea and elevated prolactin. Brain MRI revealed two sellar masses. Initially managed with observation due to the absence of neurological deficits, surgical resection was later performed after clinical and radiographic progression. Pathology confirmed both tumor types: pituitary macroadenoma and adamantinomatous craniopharyngioma. Postoperative MRI showed residual disease at the superior margin. The patient subsequently received fractionated stereotactic radiation for residual disease and tolerated well.

垂体大腺瘤和硬瘤性颅咽管瘤:鞍部碰撞肿瘤1例报告。
我们报告一个罕见的碰撞肿瘤,涉及垂体大腺瘤和硬瘤性颅咽管瘤在49岁的女性。患者有2年闭经和催乳素升高的病史。脑部MRI显示两个鞍区肿块。由于没有神经功能障碍,最初进行观察,在临床和影像学进展后进行手术切除。病理证实两种肿瘤类型:垂体大腺瘤和硬瘤性颅咽管瘤。术后MRI显示上缘病变残留。患者随后接受了分次立体定向放射治疗残余病变,耐受性良好。
