Inflammatory pseudotumor of the choroid plexus

A case of inflammatory pseudotumor is described, in which CT revealed a hyperdense intraventricular lesion with a trapped temporal horn, and MR imaging showed decreased T1 and markedly hypointense T2 signal with homogeneously intense enhancement. Radiologically and grossly the tumor resembled a meningioma; however, histologically it was composed purely of inflammatory, nonneoplastic components. The lesion was resected with no evidence of recurrence at 5-month follow-up 1).
