title: [Craniopharyngioma in a fetus].
abstract: Intrauterine sonography reveals pathological enlargement of the head and an abnormal intracranial mass in a fetus (25th week of gestation). Birth induction results in a stillborn female child (weight 1,590 g; length 35 cm; head circumference 32 cm). The supratentorial space is almost totally occupied by a craniopharyngioma, measuring 8 cm in diameter.
