ABSTRACT
One to three percent of childhood brain tumors are choroid plexus tumors. Of these, 30-40% are considered to be choroid plexus carcinoma. We report one case of choroid plexus carcinoma without parenchymal invasion, which showed rapid dissemination along whole CSF pathway and developed postoperative hydrocephalus in spite of gross total resection.
Key Words: Choroid plexuxs carcinoma; Rapid dissemination; Gross total resection
