How long can you live with craniopharyngioma?

Many people live for years after treatment. But these tumors often come back (recur). Overall, as many as 17% of tumors that are completely removed during surgery come back. That number increases to 25% to 63% for partially removed tumors. Most craniopharyngiomas that return will do so within three years after surgery.
