Abstract
Surgery is the main treatment option for the management of craniopharyngiomas. Transcranial microsurgical approaches, such as pterional and subfrontal approaches, have constituted the classic operative strategy for resection of these tumors. However, the development of endoscopic endonasal approaches has revolutionized the treatment of craniopharyngiomas in the last 15 years, and endoscopic resection is favored for most craniopharyngiomas. In this article, we discuss our experience with the management of craniopharyngiomas and review the current results of the surgical treatment of those tumors, including discussion of goals of surgery, complications, recurrences, and the role of adjuvant treatment.
