Overview
Choroid plexus papilloma was first described by Guerard, in 1832.[1]Choroid plexus papilloma may be classified into two groups: typical and atypical.[2]
Historical Perspective
Choroid plexus papilloma was first described by Guerard, in 1832.[1]
Classification
Choroid plexus papilloma may be classified into two groups:[2]
Choroid plexus papilloma | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Typical | Atypical | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
WHO grade I | WHO grade II | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Pathophysiology
- Choroid plexus papilloma is neuroectodermal in origin and similar in structure to a normal choroid plexus. They may be created by epithelial cells of the choroid plexus.[3]
- It may be a true congenital intracranial neoplasm.
Choroid plexus papilloma may be associated with:[4][5]
- Aicardi syndrome
- Von Hippel-Lindau disease
- Li-Fraumeni syndrome
- On gross pathology, choroid plexus papilloma is characterized by a soft, solid, pink to red, capsulated, vascular, and friable cauliflower-like mass.[4]
- Unlike most other brain tumors which are more common in the posterior fossa in children and supratentorial compartment in adults, the relationship is reversed for choroid plexus papillomas:
- Adults: 70% occur in the fourth ventricle
- Children: most often occur in the lateral ventricles, with a predilection for the trigone
- Third ventricular, cerebellopontine angle, parenchymal and even pineal region tumors have also been described.

Microscopic Pathology
- On microscopic histopathological analysis, choroid plexus papilloma is characterized by papillary structures with a delicate fibrovascular core lined by columnar or cuboidal epithelial cells with vesicular nuclei. Its appearance is very similar to normal choroid plexus.[4]
- If two or more mitoses are present per 10 high power field (HPF), then the tumor is designated an atypical choroid plexus papilloma and is classified as a WHO grade II tumor.

Shown above is a micrograph of choroid plexus papilloma (H&E stain).
Causes
- There are no established causes for choroid plexus papilloma.[6]
Differentiating Choroid Plexus Papilloma from other Diseases
Choroid plexus papilloma may be differentiated from:[7][1]
- Choroid plexus carcinoma
- Choroid plexus metastasis
Among children, choroid plexus papilloma must be differentiated from:[7]
- Medulloblastoma
- Atypical teratoid rhabdoid tumor (AT/RT)
- Papillary anaplastic ependymoma
- Pineocytoma
- Pineoblastoma
Among adults, choroid plexus papilloma must be differentiated from:[7]
Epidemiology and Demographics
Prevalence
- Choroid plexus papilloma accounts for approximately 1% of all brain tumors, 2-6% of all pediatric brain tumors, and 0.5% of the adult brain tumors.[8]
- They are far more common than the more aggressive choroid plexus carcinoma (WHO grade III), which they outnumber 5:1.[9]
Age
- Choroid plexus papilloma is a rare disease that tends to affect children and adults.[8]
- Approximately 85% of all choroid plexus papilloma occurs in children under the age of 5 years.
Gender
- Males are more commonly affected with choroid plexus papilloma than females. The male to female ratio is approximately 2.8 to 1.[10]
Risk Factors
- There are no established risk factors for choroid plexus papilloma.
Screening
- There is insufficient evidence to recommend routine screening for choroid plexus papilloma.[11]
Natural History, Complications and Prognosis
- If left untreated, patients with choroid plexus papilloma may progress to develop seizures, hydrocephalus, focal neurological deficits, cranioneuropathies, psychosis, and coma.[1][6]
- Common complications of choroid plexus papilloma include CSF seeding, obstructive hydrocephalus, blindness, psychosis, and coma. The prognosis is excellent, and the 5-year survival rate after complete excision of choroid plexus papilloma is approximately 100%.[6][12]
Diagnosis
Symptoms
When evaluating a patient for choroid plexus papilloma, you should take a detailed history of the presenting symptom (onset, duration, and progression), other associated symptoms, and a thorough family and past medical history review. Other specific areas of focus when obtaining the history include the review of common associated conditions such as Aicardi syndrome, Von Hippel-Lindau disease, and Li-Fraumeni syndrome.[4][5] Symptoms of choroid plexus papilloma include headache, vomiting, seizures, and vision loss.[13][1]
Physical Examination
Common physical examination findings of choroid plexus papilloma include:[13][1][6]
HEENT

- Enlarged head size
- Papilledema
