title: [One case of atypical craniopharyngioma located in sphenoïdal body and operated first by nasal then by maxillary sinus route (author's transl)].
abstract: This case of retro-pharyngeal craniopharyngioma was treated through an unusual combination of approaches first by naso septal then by the maxillary sinus route of Denker. This last exposure provided wide access and permitted a complete removal of this difficult tumor. It is usually meant for cancer of upper maxillary bone structures. In this indication, it is evidently followed by a very bad cosmetic result, but this did not happen with our patient.
