Third ventricular plasma-cell lesion with delayed intraventricular transudation of contrast medium

Neuroradiology. 2001 Sep;43(9):750-4. doi: 10.1007/s002340100568.

Abstract

We report a patient presenting with hydrocephalus secondary to a posterior third ventricular plasma-cell lesion which exhibited delayed transudation of contrast medium into the adjacent aqueduct and fourth ventricle.
