Comparative StudyCorrelation between clinical characteristics and proliferative activity in patients with craniopharyngioma.
The aim of the study was to correlate the Ki-67 and cyclin A labelling index (LI) with clinical characteristics and risk of recurrence of craniopharyngiomas. ⋯ This study confirms the great variability of proliferative activity in craniopharyngiomas. Ki-67 and cyclin A LIs were associated with the presence of a heavy inflammatory reaction and diabetes insipidus, but did not correlate with the long term risk of tumour regrowth.

Specific cognitive impairments have been found in association with mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE), such as deficits in declarative memory or verbal abilities. No attention has been paid so far to possible deficits in number processing. ⋯ While numerical deficits may be expected in patients with left sided TLE, it is open for discussion why patients with right sided TLE also show numerical deficits.
