Suprasellar seeding of a benign choroid plexus papilloma of the fourth ventricle with local recurrence.
A suprasellar location of a benign choroid plexus papilloma is reported. Local recurrence within the fourth ventricle was also present, 8 years after apparently complete removal. Imaging and histological findings were similar to those of the initial lesion. At surgery, the suprasellar lesion had no connection with the ventricular system. Seeding of choroid plexus papillomas is discussed, and the pertinent literature reviewed.
