Abstract
Two cases of fetal choroid plexus papillomas diagnosed by ultrasound a t 21 weeks of pregnancy are reported. Dilatation of the cerebral later al ventricle, unilateral in one case, made it possible to see the irre gular profile of the choroid plexus that was confirmed, successively, by magnetic resonance imaging and anatomic pathological examination on the aborted fetuses.
