Chroid plexus carcinoma with spinal drop metastasis Dr Babak Abdolkarimi Lorestan university of medical science
Grade III/IV WHO Invasion to parietal lobe
IHC recommendation: Pan-CK,vimentine,S- 100,GFAP,PLAP,CD117, AFP,hCG,synaptophysi, NSE,INI1,Ki67
WHOLE BODY bone scan: Normal
Incidence Choroid plexus tumors have an annual incidence of about 0.3 per 1 million cases.[4] It is seen mainly in children under the age < 5,[5] representing 5% of all pediatric tumors 20% of tumors in children <1 year old. [6]F=M .[7] Although choroid plexus carcinomas are significantly more aggressive and have half the survival rate as choroid plexus papillomas, they are outnumbered in incidence by 5:1 in all age groups.[7][8] a total resection of a tumor have a 86% survival rate, while patients who only receive a partial resection have a 26% 5-year survival rate. Many incomplete resections result in recurrence within 2 years of primary surgery
Etiology The sometimes occur in conjunction with other hereditary cancers, including Li Fraumeni syndrome and malignant rhabdoid tumors. A mutation in the tumor suppressor gene TP53 is usually characterized in this disease
Work up 1.TP53 R337H mutation 2.IHC & INI1 protein expression (distinguishes ATRT from choroid plexus carcinoma.) 3.abdominopelvic CT (Shunt-related abdominal metastases) 4.CSF cytology:+ for malignant cell Whole body bone scan
Treatment approach: 1.chemotherapy 2.craniospinal radiation(subtotal resection &drop metastasis) 3.autologus HSCT
