Abstract
Choroid plexus papilloma is slow growing benign tumor of neuroepithelial origin. This tumor accounts for 0.4% to 1% of intracranial neoplasm. These tumors are more common in children with incidence of 1.5% to 4% and rare in adults. Lateral ventricles are common sites in children and 4th ventricle is common site in adults. Cerebellopontine angle is rare site of occurrence of this tumor. These tumors have tendency to recur after surgical resection and also to metastasize, though they are benign. We report a case of choroid plexus papilloma presenting at cerebelloportine angle in a 45-years male.
