Choroid plexus papilloma and cysts in the Aicardi syndrome: case reports.
Two female infants with callosal agenesis, infantile spasms, chorioretinal lacunae, optic disc colobomas and cortical heterotopias were diagnosed with Aicardi syndrome. A choroid plexus papilloma was found in one patient, and choroid plexus cysts were found in the other. Choroid plexus lesions are common findings in the Aicardi syndrome and are discussed in this paper.
