Abstract

Choroid plexus carcinomas are extremely rare and rapidly growing intra ventricular tumors which are more frequently seen in young children. Choroid plexus tumors commonly involve lateral ventricles and fourth ventricle and are sometimes seen in third ventricle and extra ventricular location. We report a case of choroid plexus carcinoma arising from third ventricle extending into fourth ventricle in a 13 year old girl and discuss the imaging findings.

Keywords: Choroid plexus carcinoma- third ventricle- intra ventricular tumors.
