Surgical resection for patients with benign primary brain tumors and low grade gliomas.

abstract：:Choroid plexus papillomas (CPPs) are generally regarded as benign tumours, with a favourable long-term prognosis. Complete resection should result in cure. We present a case of diffuse craniospinal seeding from an apparently completely resected fourth ventricular primary tumour. A 51-year-old male is discussed, who pr...
