Presentation of a choroid plexus papilloma mimicking an extradural haematoma after a head injury.

Mary Murphy1, Joan P Grieve, Simon R Stapleton.   

Abstract

INTRODUCTION: Choroid plexus papillomas are rare, benign tumours of childhood. They usually present with subacute symptoms of raised intracranial pressure (ICP) commonly due to overproduction of CSF. Less common presentations include focal neurological deficits and epilepsy. CASE REPORT: This is the first reported case of any intracranial tumour mimicking a traumatic extradural haematoma in presentation.
