[A pontine tumor appearing as a sellar process over a long period and its contribution to the differential diagnosis of the empty sella syndrome].
A report is given on a pontine tumour with intrasellar cyst formation which, as it was suspected to be a hypophyseal tumour, was first treated transsphenoidally and then under the picture of an empty-sella syndrome was re-operated on subfrontally twice in an interval of ten years.
