Resumo: A case of malignant melanoma in the cerebello-pontine angle region is presented in a 72 years old female patient, who had neurological examination and CT scan suggestive of acoustic neuroma. The surgical finding and the histological examination provided the diagnosis. As a primary focus was not found on clinical examination and although autopsy was not carried out, there is a possibility of the diagnosis being a primary malignant melanoma in CNS. This specific location for this kind of tumor was found to be rare when literature is looked up.

Como não foi achado foco primário no exame clínico e embora não tenha sido feita autopsia, há possibilidade de que o diagnóstico seja de melanoma maligno primário no sistema nervoso central. Esta localização particular desse tipo de tumor é considerada rara, levando em conta os dados da literatura.Escola Paulista de Medicina Neurosurgical DepartmentUNIFESP, EPM, Neurosurgical DepartmentSciELOAcademia Brasileira de Neurologia - ABNEUROUniversidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP)Braga, F.
