A case of Aicardi syndrome associated with a choroid plexus papilloma of the third and both lateral ventricles in a 15 months old baby girl is repported. The tumor was completely removed via three craniotomies. Reports of the literature with the association of choroid plexus papilloma and Aicardi syndrome are rare. We suggest that children diagnosed with Aicardi syndrome should routinely underg...

Four cases of choroid plexus papilloma extending through the foramen of Monro are presented. All four patients were evaluated by contrast-enhanced CT and two of these were also evaluated by neurosonography. No other intraventricular tumor commonly extends through a ventricular outlet. The radiographic demonstration of this extension of an intraventricular mass through the foramen of Monro, cere...

Background: The most common mechanism associated with the development of choroid plexus carcinoma seems to be mutation of the TP53 gene. The R337H mutation of the TP53 gene has been reported in a significant proportion of patients with choroid plexus tumors. The aim of the present study was to use immunohistochemical techniques to establish whether the presence of the R337H mutation is associat...

stalks. Calcified bodies are often seen in the stroma of papillomas. An atypical papilloma is defined by the presence of mitoses >2 per 10 high power fields (HPF) and two or more of increased cellularity, nuclear pleomorphism, solid growth and areas of necrosis. There are only two other reports of choroid plexus papillomata arising in mature cystic teratomas in the literature. In one report a c...

The authors present a case of huge atypical choroid plexus papilloma in both lateral and third ventricles. A 2-yearold girl presented with lethargy and vomiting. Magnetic resonance images disclosed a huge enhancing mass, which probably arose from the left lateral ventricle and extended to the right lateral and the third ventricles. Total removal of the mass via the interhemispheric transcallosa...

A 52-year-old woman presented with right rhinorrhea and right otorrhea manifesting as aural fullness for 2 years caused by a choroid plexus papilloma in the right cerebellomedullary cistern. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging revealed a well defined lobulated mass at the foramen of Luschka, which extended towards the right cerebellomedullary cistern with slight dilation of the v...

We reported a rare case of choroid plexus papilloma arising at the foramen of Luschka of the fourth ventricle. The features of the tumor, as observed by computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging and digital subtraction angiography are described, along with a review of the literature.

Choroid Plexus Papillomas (CPPs) is also known as benign but rare central nervous system(CNS) which affect the tufts of villi that make ventricular system choroid plexus, responsible for production cerebrospinal fluid(CSF). They up between 0.5-1% in adult and 3-4% paediatric group.Here we are introducing 11-year-old- female who visited with her parents outpatient unit complaints headache fronta...
