We report the case of a man with a probable malignant melanoma. The first symptom was a paraplegia caused by spinal cord compression. Malignant melanoma of central nervous system offers more types of cytological features than in other localizations. Some times it is very difficult and even impossible to reach a precise histological classification. Taking the opportunity of this report we review the biochemotherapy approach of these kind of tumors.
