Craniopharyngeal canal and its spectrum of pathology.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The craniopharyngeal canal is a rare, well-corticated defect through the midline of the sphenoid bone from the sellar floor to the anterosuperior nasopharyngeal roof. We reviewed a series of craniopharyngeal canals to determine a system of classification that might better our understanding of this entity, highlight the range of associated pathologic conditions, and optimi...

METHODS This report details a case of a four and a half years old child that developed recurrent meningiti...
متن کاملTranssphenoidal canal (large craniopharyngeal canal) and its pathologic implications.
A vertical conduit in the basisphenoid extending from the floor of the sella to the undersurface of this bone was observed in two children. There was no associated nasopharyngeal mass.

متن کاملSternberg's canal as a cause of encephalocele within the lateral recess of the sphenoid sinus: A report of two cases
BACKGROUND Intrasphenoidal encephaloceles are extremely rare findings. Sternberg's canal is a lateral craniopharyngeal canal resulting from incomplete fusion of the greater wings of the sphenoid bone with the basisphenoid. It acts as a weak spot of the skull base, which may lead to develop a temporal lobe encephalocele protruding into the lateral recess of the sphenoid sinus (SS). CASE DESCRI...
