Abstract excerpt

Melanocytoma are the melanocytic tumors originating from leptomeningeal melanocytes. Melanocytomas are commonly seen in the central nervous system (CNS) and are often associated with neurocutaneous melanosis (NCM). However, simultaneous presentation of intra-axial and extracranial melanocytoma is a very rare event. Here, we report a unique case of 21-year-old male with intermediate-grade subcutaneous (SC)...
