Abstract :
Myelomeningocele (MMC) is a malformation commonly associated with diverse cerebral abnormalities including Chiari II, hydrocephalus, corpus callosum agenesis, and absence of septum pellucidum[1]. Gross choroid plexus anomalies like cyst and bifida have been reported before[2-4] but to our best knowledge, interchoroid plexus adhesion has never been reported so far. Our patient is an 8 month old girl, known case of MMC who underwent endoscopic third ventriculostomy (ETV) and choroid plexus cauterization (CPC) to address hydrocephalus. Her brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was confirmative of aqueductal stenosis, corpus callosum agenesis and absence of septum pellucidum. During ETV/CPC, aberrant choroid plexus was found above the fornix attached to choroid plexus of both lateral ventricles at level of trigon that was cauterized (Fig. 1).
