چکیده
Objective: The objective is to study the approach of removal of craniopharynginoma. Methods: We remove eight cases of craniopharynginoma in childhood which intrudes the third ventricle transcallosal septum pellucidum interforniceal approach from August, 2013 to December, 2015. Results: MRI or Recheck CT of brain post-operation can identify the removal situations of the tumor. Conclusion: Tanscallosal septum pellucidum interforniceal approach to remove craniopharynginoma is a very important method.
