  • Title: Do the suprasellar neurenteric cyst, the Rathke cleft cyst and the colloid cyst constitute a same entity?
    Author: Graziani N, Dufour H, Figarella-Branger D, Donnet A, Bouillot P, Grisoli F.
    Journal: Acta Neurochir (Wien); 1995; 133(3-4):174-80. PubMed ID: 8748762.
    Abstract:
    Two cases of entirely suprasellar cysts are reported. Total surgical removal was performed in both cases. Pathological and immunohistochemical profiles were consistent with neurenteric cysts, Rathke's cleft cysts or colloid cysts and was also in keeping with an endodermal origin. It is now admitted that these three kinds of cysts share similar histological and immunohistological features. We propose an hypothesis of common embryological origin from endodermal remnants.
