Abstrakt:	Objective: To review childhood patients with choroid plexus tumors (CPT) who underwent surgery at Hospital Infantil Niño Jesús of Madrid since January 1981 to September 2014. Material and Methods: Registered charts were analyzed based on the epidemiology, tumor grade, clinical profile, location, dissemination characteristics, therapy, prognosis and complications. Results: Seventeen childhood patients were recorded with CPT. Cases were distributed so that 9 cases were choroid plexus-papilloma (CPP) (52.9%), 2 cases atypical CPP (11.7%) and 6 cases choroid plexus-carcinoma (CPC) (35.2%). Age at diagnosis was less than 2 years in 14 of the 17 patients (82.3%) and the incidence was higher in males (82.3% of the cases). Gross total resection was performed in 16 patients (94.1%). Adjuvant treatment was used in 6 patients (all this cases with CPC) (35.2%). Two of the 17 patients died (11.7%), showing an incidence density of 0.01 deaths/year. Conclusions: Our case series is consistent with previous published in scientific literature regarding epidemiology, tumor grade, clinical presentation, radiological features and therapeutic approach. Gross total resection is considered the therapeutic gold standard for choroid plexus tumors. Chemotherapy and radiotherapy should be used as adjuvant treatment in CPC and recurrent or remaining atypical CPP. (Copyright © 2014 Sociedad Española de Neurocirugía. Published by Elsevier España.
