Choroid plexus papillomas are rare neoplasms that arise from choroid plexus epithelium. Most of these lesions appear in children, mainly located in the lateral ventricles. We report a case of a 40 year old male with rapidly progressive dementia and gait ataxia who was found to have choroid plexus papilloma. This condition predominantly affects children and is mostly located in the lateral ventricles. Choroid plexus papilloma accounts for 0.5% of all brain tumors in adulthood with very few case reports in the world which have depicted this unusual presentation.
