abstract="The authors present two cases of patients with craniopharyngiomas who meet the DSM-III-R criteria for intermittent explosive disorder. Episodes of rage developed before and/or after surgery for removal of the craniopharyngioma. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed hypothalamic-hypophyseal involvement. It is suggested that hypothalamic lesions played a major role in the development of aggressive behavior in both cases.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
