CHOROID PLEXUS CYST IN A DOG

A 6‐year‐old male Doberman Pinscher had a 2‐month history of dysequilibrium. Lesion localization was determined to be the cerebellomedullary pontine angle. In computed tomographic images, a well‐defined, circular, hypoattenuating mass was visible at the cerebellomedullary pontine angle. The lesion,...

Description
Summary:A 6‐year‐old male Doberman Pinscher had a 2‐month history of dysequilibrium. Lesion localization was determined to be the cerebellomedullary pontine angle. In computed tomographic images, a well‐defined, circular, hypoattenuating mass was visible at the cerebellomedullary pontine angle. The lesion, which was isoattenuating to cerebrospinal fluid, was 4 × 8 mm in diameter. Peripheral ring enhancement was evident after contrast medium administration. A choroid plexus cyst was diagnosed histopathologically.
