Chemotherapy improves the survival of patients with choroid plexus carcinoma: a meta-analysis of individual cases with choroid plexus tumors

open access: yesJournal of Neuro-Oncology, 2007
Background Choroid plexus carcinomas (CPC) are rare brain tumors with a dismal prognosis. Although the role of surgery has been well established, the question of whether chemotherapy improves the prognosis is still under discussion.

Tumors of the choroid plexus

Microscopy Research and Technique, 2000
Choroid plexus tumors are rare intraventricular papillary neoplasms derived from choroid plexus epithelium, which account for only between 0.4-0.6% of all intracranial and 2-3% of pediatric neoplasms. Plexus papillomas outnumber choroid plexus carcinomas by a ratio of 5:1 and around 80% of choroid plexus carcinomas arise in children.

Choroid Plexus Tumors

2020
Choroid plexus tumors are rare intracranial tumors which account for only 0.4–0.6% of all brain tumors. These are intraventricular papillary neoplasms derived from choroid plexus epithelium and range from well-differentiated choroid plexus papillomas (CPP WHO grade I) to highly aggressive choroid plexus carcinomas (WHO grade III), with rare ...

Choroid Plexus Tumors in the Dog

Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 1980
SUMMARY Clinical and necropsy records for nine dogs with tumors of the choroid plexus were reviewed. In seven of the dogs, the tumors were on the left side of the fourth ventricle. All of the dogs were males, ranging in age from 13 months to 9 years. Upper motor neuron tetraparesis and positional nystagmus were the most common neurologic signs.

Choroid plexus tumors

Revista de neurologia, 2001
Tumors of the choroid plexus are rare tumors of neuro ectodermal origin, accounting for less 1% of intracranial tumors in all ages. Most cases present in children less than 2 years of age. These tumors have been classified according to histopathological criteria into papilloma and carcinoma.We review the epidemiological, clinical, neuropathological ...

Choroid Plexus Tumors

2019
Derived from choroid plexus epithelium and vascularized by choroidal arteries, choroid plexus tumors (CPTs) are primary intraventricular brain tumors of neuroectodermal origin with a papillary pattern resembling nonneoplastic choroid plexus. CPTs include both benign choroid plexus papilloma (CPP) and malignant choroid plexus carcinoma (CPC), as well as

Choroid Plexus Tumors

2014
Choroid plexus tumors (CPTs) are rare neoplasms arising from the choroid plexus epithelium, and occur predominantly in infants and children. CPTs may be associated with TP53 germline mutations (Li–Fraumeni syndrome), but the majority of CPTs are sporadic.

Choroid plexus tumors in children

Neurosurgery Clinics of North America, 2003
Choroid plexus tumors represent a well-defined subset of brain tumors that occur mainly in young children. Surgical resection for papilloma is usually curative, although careful surgical planning is required to minimize the potential risks. Although adjunctive therapy for carcinoma includes chemotherapy or radiation, the long-term survival for ...

Choroid Plexus Tumors

Abstract Choroid plexus tumors are a heterogeneous entity in terms of histopathology with World Health Organization grade 1 (papilloma: CPP), 2 (atypical papilloma: aCPP), or 3 (carcinoma: CPC) tumors. They may occur in children (preferentially supratentorial) or adults (preferentially infratentorial).
