Despite belonging to the group of benign epithelial tumors, defined by the World Health Organization (WHO), CPs are highly problematic in the clinical field because of the hormonal and hypothalamic disorders that they cause. CP can be divided into two distinct subtypes, adamantinomatous CP (ACP) and papillary CP (PCP), which differ both in their histological features and genetic alterations they carry, the latter being the source of new avenues for therapy.
