Unusual circumstance for craniopharyngioma discovery on meningoencephalitis: a pediatric case report.

This case is the first to report the discovery of a craniopharyngioma with meningoencephalitis caused by the rupture of a craniopharyngioma cyst in a child. Diagnosis was facilitated by determining the cholesterol level in the cerebrospinal fluid, as well as fine anamnesis to identify visual and growth disturbances.
