[Primary diffuse leptomeningeal melanoblastosis and its CT appearances (author's transl)].
We report the case of a twelve-year-old boy who died, after a six months history, from primary diffuse leptomeningeal melanoblastosis, CT investigations showed a saw-tooth contrast enhancement at the brain surface. CT investigations may therefore be very helpful in meningeal lesions - apart from the importance of CSF investigations.
