[Craniopharyngioma of the nasopharynx. Apropos of a case].
A case report of a nine year-old child with a basal skull and nasopharynx craniopharyngioma, whose initial manifestation was nasal respiratory insufficiency and ophthalmologic pathology, is presented. The diagnosis was possible due to some Departments collaboration by excellent images of CT and MR and confirmed histopathologically after its total excision performed by U. Fisch type C infratemporal approach, which is used for nasopharyngeal carcinomas and juvenile angiofibromas.
