Xanthogranulomas of the choroid plexus are found relatively frequently at autopsy; however only 8 cases of symptomatic choroid plexus xanthogranuloma of the lateral ventricle have been reported. We describe an additional case in a 63-year-old man who presented with headache. A well circumscribed mass located in the trigone of the right lateral ventricle and extending into the periventricular white matter was detected on imaging studies. The clinical impression was metastasis. The resected material had the typical histological appearance of a xanthogranuloma of the choroid plexus. The clinical and histopathologic features of these lesions are reviewed and other xanthogranulomatous processes involving the brain are briefly discussed.
脉络丛黄色瘤在尸检中相对常见；然而，仅有8例有症状的侧脑室脉络丛黄色瘤的病例报告。我们描述了另外1例63岁出现头痛的男性病例。影像学检查发现一个边界清晰的肿块位于右侧脑室三角区并延伸至脑室周围白质。临床诊断为转移瘤。切除的组织具有脉络丛黄色瘤典型的组织学表现。本文回顾了这些病变的临床和组织病理学特征，并简要讨论了其他累及脑部的黄色瘤性病变。
