Neurocutaneous melanosis are neuroectodermal disorders characterized by giant congenital melanocytic nevus or multiple (≥3) nevus’s associated with melanocytic leptomeningeal tumour. Central nervous system tumour can be benign or malignant and usually presents at an early age. The neurological manifestation includes raised intracranial pressure, seizures and spinal cord compression. The dissemination of malignant nevomelanocytes to the peritoneal cavity has been observed with ventriculoperitoneal shunt placement in neurocutaneous melanosis. We report an infant of neurocutaneous melanosis with primary central nervous system melanoma and its metastasis to the lung in view of rarity.
