We report an unusual occurrence of a primary dural-based malignant melanoma in a 13-year-old boy with neurocutaneous melanosis. The lesion presented with rapid-onset symptoms characterized by raised intracranial pressure and seizures, had an aggressive clinical course, and proved to be fatal despite two surgeries and adjuvant therapy. There should be a high index of suspicion for the occurrence of such a malignant leptomeningeal tumor in patients with congenital melanocytic nevi presenting with neurological symptoms of recent onset.
