Abstract
17 intrinsic hypothalamic tumors in infancy and childhood occurring between 1963 and 1973 were analyzed in detail because of the consistent mode of approach to diagnosis, therapy and follow-up care. Careful examination of the symptom-time sequence and location provided anatomical-clinical correlations and was even suggestive of the probable histologic type of lesion present. The postoperative and long-term management problems have led to significant conclusions. The best results were obtained with those patients who underwent craniotomy and biopsy, followed by irradiation therapy.
