title: Neuroradiological aspects of suprasella germinoma.
abstract: The plain skull roentgenography, angiography, air encephalography or positive contrast medium ventriculography and computed tomography (CT) of twelve cases of suprasella germinoma were reviewed. In over half of the cases, plain skull roentgenography and angiography showed some abnormalities suggesting a suprasella mass. CT was found to be the most appropriate for routine examination. And air encephalography or positive contrast medium ventriculography offered decisive information.
