Multimodality Approach to a Pediatric Craniopharyngioma with Mixed Histological Features
We report a unique case of pediatric craniopharyngioma with mixed histological features that were managed successfully via a multimodality approach. Emphases are on molecular profiling of the said lesion, minimizing permanent morbidity and maintenance of quality of life for a growing child. In the context of tumors with BRAFV600E mutations, the use of targeted monotherapy can be considered.
