摘要: Objective and importance Choroid plexus papillomas (CPP) are benign neoplasms of ventricular ependymal origin that make up 0.5–0.6% all adult brain tumors but more commonly seen in the pediatric population [8]. Gross total resection is surgical objective, when achieved, 10-year survival can approach 75% [20]. arise any compartment, an age-specific predilection does exist. Supratentorial CPP, those located lateral third ventricles, common infants with average age diagnosis 1.5 years, while fourth ventricle cerebellopontine angle CPP adults 35.5 years [27]. Unusual locations for have been widely reported, to date, there has not a report within medullary cistern. Here, we describe case young woman right cistern causing mass effect on medulla was treated surgically gross resection. To our knowledge,
