RESUMEN

Leptomeningeal carcinomatosis (LMC) is an uncommon disease that unfortunately has a rapid deterioration and a very poor prognosis with a devastating outcome. There has been an associated increase in the incidence of the leptomeningeal disease recently. There is a low percentage of LMC, around five percent of patients with metastatic disease. LMC has been presented in solid tumors such as breast cancer, lung cancer, melanoma, and GI malignancies. LMC is less likely reported in ovarian cancers. The clinical presentation of LMC is variable and will express according to where the cancer cells infiltrate. The malignant cells can travel with the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and deposit on the brain, cerebellum, spinal cord, cranial nerves, and spinal roots. We report this case as a clinical anatomical exercise for healthcare professionals.
