Description Craniopharyngioma is a rare embryonic tumor in the sellar/parasellar region, with early diagnosis being crucial to prevent permanent sequale. There is overlap in the clinical presentation of craniopharyngioma and optic disc drusen (ODD), including visual field loss and reduced visual acuity. We describe the first known presentation of a patient with ODD masking the underlying diagnosis of craniopharyngioma, and identify shared findings in investigations.
