Histopathological features of malignant craniopharyngioma: Case report and literature review.

CONCLUSION: We concluded that SCC represented only half of the malignant cases, while the morphology of ~ 11% of them was comparable with ameloblastic or odontogenic ghost cell carcinomas and 28% lacked a specific histological diagnosis. Most cases were fatal, which makes it necessary to include the entity of malignant craniopharyngioma in the WHO Classification of Tumors of the CNS as a high-grade tumor defining its histological variability.
