Historical perspective
- In 1840, von Mohr described the rapid development of obesity in a case of a pituitary tumor.
- Zenker in 1857 was the first to identify masses of cells resembling squamous epithelium along the pars tuberalis and pars distalis of the pituitary.[1]
- In 1932, squamous epithelial cells were detected in the pituitary glands of childhood populations.[1]
- in 1932 the name “craniopharyngioma” was introduced by Cushing.[1]
- In the International Classification of Diseases for Oncology 3rd revision the code number 9350 refers to "unspecified craniopharyngioma", whilst 9351 and 9352 correspond to the two histological subtypes, adamantinous and papillary craniopharyngiomas, respectively.[1]
