Yang R, Yan H, Dewan MC, Tailor JK, Santisukwongchote S, Hawkins C, Ibrahim GM. Giant choroid plexus cysts with calvarial erosion: a case report and literature review. Child's nervous system : ChNS : official journal of the International Society for Pediatric Neurosurgery. 2020 Oct 15.
Choroid plexus cysts rarely grow to be symptomatic. Few large choroid plexus cysts have been reported in the pediatric population. The authors report a 15-month-old boy with increased head circumference and a bony deformity in the left parietal region due to mass effect from a giant choroid plexus cyst. The child had a craniotomy for open resection of the cyst, and made an excellent recovery. The differential diagnosis for intraventricular cysts and the literature surrounding choroid plexus cysts are discussed.
