Abstract
Primary malignant melanoma of the nervous system is a rare disease, and accounts for only 1% of melanoma cases. Primary melanomas on the spinal nerve root, particulary the cervical spinal nerve root, are extremely rare. Only a few cases of primary melanoma arising from the spinal nerve root have been reported. We report our experience with a case of primary malignant melanoma of the cervical spinal nerve root.
