悪性脈絡叢乳頭腫の1例

Choroid Plexus Carcinoma:Case report

I．はじめに

　脈絡叢乳頭腫は成人原発性脳腫瘍の約0.6％，小児脳腫瘍中の1.0-3.0％を占める比較的稀な腫瘍である．更に，悪性脈絡叢乳頭腫となると，その報告は極めて少ない．

　著者らは，11歳の女児に発生し，その発育様式がmultifocalと考えられた興味ある悪性脈絡叢乳頭腫を経験したので報告し，若干の文献的考察を加える．

A case of the malignant papilloma of the choroid plexus was reported.

An 11-year-old girl had been in good health untill 6 months before admission when she developed generalized convulsive seizures and began to complain of occasional headache. Three months later, she was also attacked with an automatism like seizure. Her headache became severe gradually and was sometimes accompanied with nausea and vomitting. She was admitted to our hospital on July 10, 1979.
