The findings are compared with those of a craniopharyngioma studied in the same way. The patient was a 26-year-old woman presenting with headache, chiasmatic syndrome, and hypopituitarism. A cyst containing a mural nodule was partially removed and an Ommaya reservoir placed in the operative site for further treatment. The cyst wall was composed of connective tissue and three kinds of epithelial cells: non-ciliated squamous, ciliated columnar, and mucous-secreting cells. The morphology of these cells <jats:italic>in vitro<\/jats:italic> was similar to prickle cells seen in craniopharyngioma and the epidermis. It is concluded that both Rathke's left cyst and craniopharyngioma originate in remnants of Rathke's pouch, but at times may show some histological differences.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3171\/jns.1977.47.3.0451","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2009,5,7]],"date-time":"2009-05-07T15:18:00Z","timestamp":1241709480000},"page":"451-458","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":90,"title":["Symptomatic Rathke's cleft cyst"],"prefix":"10.3171","volume":"47","author":[{"given":"Jun","family":"Yoshida","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Tatsuya","family":"Kobayashi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Naoki","family":"Kageyama","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Masaki","family":"Kanzaki","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1754","reference":[{"key":"b1","series-title":"Arch Dis Child","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"118","DOI":"10.1136\/adc.22.110.118","article-title":"Dysontogenetic pituitary cysts.
