Malignant melanoma especially primary melanoma is uncommon in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. GI melanomas are usually metastatic from skin melanoma. Anorectal region and small bowel are the most common sites of primary and metastatic GI melanoma respectively. Various theories have been put forward to explain the origin of Primary Melanoma of Small intestine. Melanomas of the GI tract can produce range of symptoms based on their location and size. Surgery is the main stay of treatment for localized disease. We reported a case of primary duodenal melanoma which was managed by surgically.

Melanoma Patients

We report on a very rare case of dorsal intramedullary melanocytoma in a 62-year-old man. The tumor was resected and gross total removal was achieved. During a 2-year follow-up period in which no radiotherapy was given, the tumor did not recur. We review the literature on these tumors and present disease criteria to distinguish melanocytoma from primary malignant melanoma. Patients and investigators should be cautioned that an intramedullary melanocytoma may recur and give rise to metastatic spread via the cerebrospinal fluid.
