First seen Dec 29, 2025 · Last updated May 06, 2026 · Updated 15 times
Summary
This study looks at how surgery for a rare brain tumor (craniopharyngioma) changes what people like to eat. Researchers think damage to the hypothalamus might make patients crave high-fat, high-sugar foods, leading to severe weight gain. By comparing 346 patients with two control groups, they hope to understand these food preference changes and find better ways to manage obesity after surgery.
