title: [An unusual case of adenocarcinoma of the median parieto-occipital area of the scalp with brain involvement].
abstract: The authors describe an uncommon personally observed case of adenocarcinoma of the soft tissues in the medial parietoccipital region of the scalp, with the involvement of the brain. This case is very interesting for the localization of the cancer and its marked aggressiveness, which did not allow radical surgery.
