Abstract
- Papillomas of the choroid plexus constitute 3.4~3.9 percent of intracranial tumors in childhood, much higher incidence rate than that in adulthood. Although relatively rare, this is an important tumor since it is usually a benign resectable lesion with satisfactory result. It is also an unusually interesting tumor because of its association with a communicating hydrocephalus. Its site of occurrence is also characteristic according to the age, being usually lateral ventricle and rarely the 4th or 3rd ventricle in childhood. We present a case of 4th ventricle choroid plexus papilloma in a child with its characteristic CT finding.
