摘要
Primary intradural extramedullary melanoma of spinal cord is an extremely rare tumor. It accounts for approximately 1% of the total melanoma cases. We report a case of primary intradural extramedullary spinal melanoma in a 28-year-old gentleman who was managed with surgery followed by postoperative radiation with concurrent temozolomide followed by adjuvant temozolomide. The patient had a disease-free survival of 24 months, after which he developed marginal recurrence. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case of a primary spinal cord melanoma (PSCM) treated with postoperative radiotherapy with concurrent temozolomide followed by adjuvant Temozolomide.
