| description | This case presents an unusual combination between an intraventricular meningioma and a choroid plexus papilloma. Intraventricular meningiomas are rare intraventricular tumors presenting with symptoms of hydrocephalus, headache, and neurological deficits. The rarity of choroid plexus papillomas is highlighted in medical diagnostics, with the majority of these findings being incidental within the setting of obstructive hydrocephalus. We present the case of a 66-year-old male patient who exhibited symptoms of headaches. Magnetic resonance imaging showed the presence of an intraventricular tumor in the region of the trigone of the right lateral ventricle, which was assessed for surgical removal. A postoperative hemorrhage necessitated a reoperation, after which the patient began to gradually recover. Hemianopsian disturbances persisted during and after his hospital stay. This report describes a rare case of concurrent choroid plexus papilloma and ventricular meningioma, manifesting as a single tumor mass. |
