case_images: Craniopharyngioma of the left temporal lobe. Axial T1-weighted (a) and T2-weighted (b) MR images show a solid-cystic mass with no significant edema at left temporal lobe. Sagittal (c) and coronal contrast enhanced T1-weighted (d) MR images show peripheral wall enhancement and enhancing solid component.

case_images: The magnetic resonance imaging of the brain revealed a large heterogeneous solid-cystic mass in the left temporal lobe with no connection to the craniopharyngeal duct, the suprasellar, or intrasellar regions, although there was no significant edema or mass effect (Figure 1). Contrast enhanced T1-weighted images showed ring enhancement in solid component and peripheral wall (Figure 1).
case_images: Photomicrograph (a) shows neoplastic tissue composed of solid, pseudopapillary structures lined by several layers of tumoral cells (original magnification, 100; hematoxylin-eosin staining). Photomicrograph (b, c) shows positive cytokeratin and EMA staining in tumoral cells, respectively (original magnification, 100; immunohistochemistry staining).
