Abstract:
A case of primary malignant melanoma of the meninges is described in which the clinical presentation is that of visual loss and limb weakness. Clinically a diagnosis of carcinomatous meningitis was made and subsequently malignant cells were found in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). At autopsy the diagnosis of primary malignant melanoma of the meninges was made.
