? 2022 Elsevier Inc.Infantile choroid plexus papilloma (CPP) associated with multiple peritumoral cysts is a rare variant of CPP, and clinical course and optimal management are largely unknown. A 9-month-old boy presented with a large solid tumor in the left lateral ventricle associated with multiple peritumoral cysts, arachnoid cysts, and hydrocephalus containing xanthochromic fluid with high protein content. Shrinkage of these cysts and resolution of hydrocephalus were achieved after total resection of the hypervascular solid part of the tumor. Histological examination confirmed the solid part of the tumor as CPP and showed that the wall of the peritumoral cysts consisted of reactive gliosis without neoplastic cells. Follow-up magnetic resonance imaging 12 months after surgery revealed that these cysts remained stable. CPP with nonenhancing peritumoral cysts can be managed by resection of only the solid part of the tumor without permanent cerebrospinal fluid diversion.
