Abstract:
The computed tomographic findings in 5 patients with the central neurofibromatosis were reviewed. Atypical choroid plexus calcification was evident in 3 of 5 patients in the anterior half of lateral ventricle, foramen of Monro and third ventricle. The cause of this abnormal calcification is unknown yet, but it may have the diagnostic significance for central neurofibromatosis.
