Choroid plexus carcinoma of the brain is a type of severe brain malignancy (cancer) that originates from the uncontrolled division of cells that makes the choroid plexus of the brain. Choroid plexus carcinomas of the brain are classified into three grades by the World Health Organization: grade I, II, and III. In spite of having similar pathological features, grade 3 choroid plexus carcinomas have poorer outcomes than WHO grade 1 and grade 2 choroid plexus carcinomas.
Many sufferers of Choroid plexus carcinoma of the brain struggle because they feel that their disease doesn’t have the same level of awareness as more common cancers. Without a Ribbon is an Australian non-profit organisation that believes that rare cancers should never go unnoticed. We aim to provide a detailed set of resources and information for anyone suffering from cancers such as Choroid plexus carcinoma of the brain. We have recently created an Choroid plexus carcinoma of the brain resource page to help sufferers understand their disease. It covers the symptoms, available treatments and other important information.
We hope that this resource page will help you or a friend/family member to learn about their illness and aid them through their battle with the disease.
