This can lead to a dilated fourth ventricle and subsequent hydrocephalus of all four ...
Rathke's pouch is a sac-like structure that gives rise to the pars distalis, pars intermedia, and pars tuberalis of the pituitary gland. The cells of Rathke's pouch proliferate and differentiate into various hormone-producing cells, including Somatotrophs, Lactotrophs, Corticotrophs, Thyrotrophs, and Gonadotrophs.
A Rathke's cleft cyst is a benign growth on the pituitary gland in the brain, specifically a mucin-filled [1] cyst in the posterior portion of the anterior pituitary gland. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] It occurs when the Rathke's pouch does not develop properly and ranges in size from 2 to 40 mm in diameter.
Craniopharyngioma is a rare, usually suprasellar [15] neoplasm, which may be cystic, that develops from nests of epithelium derived from Rathke's pouch. [16] [17] Rathke's pouch is an embryonic precursor of the anterior pituitary. [citation needed] Craniopharyngiomas are typically very slow-growing tumors.

The cyst is typically surrounded by lymphoid tissue that has attenuated or absent overlying epithelium due to inflammatory changes.
