Intraventricular mass lesions of the brain.

Intraventricular tumours represent a diverse group of lesions, some of them infrequent, with a wide variety of radiological features. Determination of their precise aetiology or origin can be difficult. Nevertheless, considering patient’s age, location within the ventricles, and some specific radiological features, the radiologist should be able to narrow down the differential diagnosis. This paper reviews the characteristic radiological appearances of the diverse intraventricular lesions emphasising its differential diagnosis.
