Aggressive Behaviour of Metastatic Melanoma in a Patient with Neurofibromatosis Type 1

الملخص EN

Malignant melanoma is a common skin neoplasm bearing poor prognosis when presenting with metastases.

Rarely melanoma metastases present without an identifiable primary cutaneous lesion despite exhaustive workup.

We describe the case of a solitary lung metastasis in a patient with neurofibromatosis type 1 without an identifiable primary tumour.

The rapid progression of this malignant neoplasm that led to the patient’s death within 1 year is described.
