Summary of
Choroid Plexus Papilloma
Choroid plexus tumors are primary central nervous system (CNS) tumors. This means they begin in the brain or spinal cord.
Choroid plexus papillomas are grouped in two grades based on their characteristics.
- Grade I choroid plexus papilloma are low grade tumors. This means the tumor cells grow slowly.
- Grade II atypical choroid plexus papilloma are mid-grade tumors. This means the tumors have a higher chance of coming back after being removed.
Choroid plexus tumors occur in both children and adults, but are more common in children in the first year of life. Choroid plexus tumors occur slightly more often in females than males.
- Choroid Plexus Tumors was originally published by the National Cancer Institute.
