Sleep dysfunction in long term survivors of craniopharyngioma
Journal of Neuro-Oncology, 05/09/2012
Manley PE et al. – Extent of resection did not increase the likelihood of patient–reported daytime sleepiness and/sleep dysfunction; however, patients who received radiation more frequently reported daytime sleepiness and/or sleep dysfunction. Patients with a higher BMI were more likely to experience sleep disturbance. Formal sleep evaluations should be considered in all patients with craniopharyngioma.
