The choroid plexus (CP), which regulates cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) production and immune signaling, may contribute to these mechanisms. This review aimed to evaluate alterations in CP volume (CPV) in AD and their clinical significance.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>PubMed, Embase, Scopus, and Web of Science were searched up to March 2025. Eligible MRI-based studies comparing CPV between AD patients and healthy controls (HCs), as well as investigations examining associations of CPV with demographic, cognitive, structural, and pathological variables, were included. Random-effects models estimated pooled effect sizes, while narrative synthesis explored associations with clinical and pathological features.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Sixteen studies (2004 AD; 883 HCs) met inclusion criteria. Pooled findings demonstrated significantly larger CPV in AD relative to HCs (SMD\u2009=\u20091.05, 95% CI: 0.67 to 1.43; p\u2009&lt;\u20090.01). Narrative review indicated consistent links between CP enlargement and worse cognition, hippocampal and cortical atrophy, ventricular expansion, and increased amyloid and tau deposition. CP changes were also associated with impaired glymphatic clearance and systemic inflammation. Notably, enlargement was observed in mild cognitive impairment, suggesting early involvement in the disease course.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>CP enlargement may represent a neuroimaging feature of AD, reflecting the interplay between impaired clearance mechanisms and neuroinflammatory processes.
