Scalp Cirsoid Aneurysms: Case Illustration and Systematic Review of Literature.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:The pineal region is a rare intracranial site for metastasis. We report three patients initially considered to have metastatic papillary adenocarcinoma to the pineal region. On review, these papillary, keratin-positive neoplasms meet the criteria for papillary tumor of the pineal region (PTPR). CLINICAL PRES...
