title: Choroid plexus carcinoma: a rare condition and its therapeutic management.
abstract: Choroid plexus carcinomas are rare tumours, found chiefly during childhood. The commonest pattern of progression is via the neural axis. We present the case of a patient with unusual metastatic dissemination, affecting lungs and bones two years after diagnosis, and the approach adopted towards him.
