MeSH Heading: Choroid Plexus Neoplasms
Tree Number(s): C04.588.614.250.195.205.200; C10.228.140.211.280.300; C10.551.240.250.200.200
Unique ID: D016545
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D016545
Annotation: in the brain: do not confuse with CHOROID NEOPLASMS (in the eye); coord IM with histol type of neopl (IM)
Scope Note: Benign or malignant tumors which arise from the choroid plexus of the ventricles of the brain. Papillomas (see PAPILLOMA, CHOROID PLEXUS) and carcinomas are the most common histologic subtypes, and tend to seed throughout the ventricular and subarachnoid spaces. Clinical features include headaches, ataxia and alterations of consciousness, primarily resulting from associated HYDROCEPHALUS. (From Devita et al., Cancer: Principles and Practice of Oncology, 5th ed, p2072; J Neurosurg 1998 Mar;88(3):521-8)
