    Abstract:
    Choroid plexus carcinoma are tumors arising from epithelial cells of the choroid plexus. They distinguish from the benign choroid plexus papilloma because of their invasive capacity and cellular pleomorphism. This is a rare neoplasm and only infrequently occurs in adults. We report three cases of choroid plexus carcinoma, two women of 61 and 58 years old and a third one a child of 3 years old. We performed a review of the literature with special attention to the epidemiologic, histologic, clinic and therapeutic issues.
