Abstract

|
|
We have reported a case of dumbell shaped malignant melanoma which developed and formed a large mass (2 cm X 7 cm XS cm) in the frontal scalp at the midline, eroded the bone, and invaded directly into the epidural region through the bony defect and formed another large tumor (3 cmX7 cmX8 cm) in the frontal fossa. Several small modules of malignant melanoma were found in the anterior chest wall, too.
In spite of the huge mass in the frontal fossa .the- case developed only dull headache without any neurological deficits.
The frontal mass was successfully excised of which pathological finding. showed malignant melanoma.
