CT scanning for papilloma of choroid plexus. 1978

J A Veiga-Pires, and R S Dossetor, and O van Nieuwenhuizen

A case of choroid plexus papilloma is presented which was extensively investigated. The location of the pedicle of this tumor was not demonstrated by conventional CT, ventriculography of ventriculoscopy. Coronal CT sections, however, clearly showed the pedicle and its location. Dilatation of the cisterns and sulci suggested that there was overproduction of cerebrospinal fluid.

D010212	Papilloma	A circumscribed benign epithelial tumor projecting from the surrounding surface; more precisely, a benign epithelial neoplasm consisting of villous or arborescent outgrowths of fibrovascular stroma covered by neoplastic cells.

D002551	Cerebral Ventricle Neoplasms	Neoplasms located in the brain ventricles, including the two lateral, the third, and the fourth ventricle. Ventricular tumors may be primary (e.g., CHOROID PLEXUS NEOPLASMS and GLIOMA, SUBEPENDYMAL), metastasize from distant organs, or occur as extensions of locally invasive tumors from adjacent brain structures.
