Title: Treatment of choroid plexus papillomas in children: a brief analysis of twenty years' experience. Author: Hawkins JC. Journal: Neurosurgery; 1980 Apr; 6(4):380-4. PubMed ID: 7393420. Abstract: This is a brief report of 17 histologically verified choroid plexus papillomas (CPPs). The radiological evaluation and surgical treatment are outlined.

The limited experience with postoperative irradiation is presented. The computed tomography of this lesion is discussed.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
