Area of Science:

  • Neuro-oncology
  • Pediatric neurosurgery
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Choroid plexus tumors are rare intracranial neoplasms, comprising 0.4-0.6% of all brain tumors.
  • These papillary neoplasms originate from the choroid plexus epithelium within the ventricles.
  • They represent a significant, though uncommon, cause of hydrocephalus.

Observation:

  • A 1-year-old child presented with clinical signs and symptoms indicative of hydrocephalus.
  • Diagnostic workup confirmed the presence of an intraventricular mass.

Findings:

  • Histopathological examination revealed the tumor to be a choroid plexus papilloma (World Health Organization grade I).
  • The tumor was successfully diagnosed and managed.

Implications:

  • This case highlights the importance of considering choroid plexus papilloma in the differential diagnosis of hydrocephalus in infants.
  • Early diagnosis and appropriate management are crucial for favorable outcomes in pediatric hydrocephalus cases.
  • Further research into the specific etiology and optimal treatment strategies for pediatric choroid plexus tumors is warranted.
