Rationale for change

Craniopharyngiomas affect children/teens but also adults in their 50s-70s; question stem disregards 2nd peak

Rejection reason

Could be a number of other conditions in an adult; specifying this is a child makes one diagnosis more likely

Get MRI to see the mass and distinguish between craniopharyngioma and Kallman (no mass in Kallman)

- Compression of the infundibular stalk → disconnection hyperprolactinemia
- Compression of the pituitary gland due to intrasellar extension → hypopituitarism
- Compression of the ventromedial hypothalamic nucleus → hyperphagia and obesity
