Description
Summary:Choroid plexus papillomas are relatively rare vascular tumors. In this video, the authors present a pediatric patient who underwent exoscopic removal of the fourth ventricle choroid plexus papilloma with the use of a midline suboccipital osteoplastic craniotomy. The exoscope in the fourth ventricle lesion helps to improve visualization in all directions, with the surgeon being able to maintain a comfortable position throughout the procedure. In addition, the midline suboccipital osteoplastic craniotomy helps to reduce the potential risks of complications, in particular, CSF leak and craniovertebral junction instability.
