Lateral ventricle tumor

The left and right lateral ventricles each have an irregular shape and are located in the frontal, parietal, occipital, and temporal lobes. It is divided into 5 parts: anterior horn, lower horn, posterior horn, body and triangle. It contains cerebrospinal fluid and is secreted by the choroid tissue of the lateral ventricle. Tissue tumor. Common cases include meningiomas, ependymal tumors, choroidal papillomas, and epithelioid cysts, of which meningiomas are the most common. According to the statistics of a large number of cases, gliomas are more common in the front part of the lateral ventricle, and meningiomas are more common in the posterior part. Choroidal papillomas mostly occur in the triangular area and can extend to other parts of the ventricle, sometimes through the ventricle. The hole grows into the third ventricle. However, it seems that tumors in the lateral ventricle mostly occur in the anterior and triangular regions of the lateral ventricle. Can be seen at any age, but more than 20 years old, the left side seems more than the right side, more men than women.
