We conclude that dural melanomas are less aggressive tumors requiring surgical extirpation only. This case and previous reports of dural melanomas occurring in isolation or with Nevus of Ota have demonstrated relatively prolonged survival after surgical intervention. CNS melanoma is regarded as an extremely aggressive disease with poor prognosis. Primary dural melanomas, Nevus of Ota, and blue nevi are discussed in relation to their coexistence and potential for intracranial melanoma. The patient is alive almost more than 8 years after subtotal and subsequent total resection of her primary tumor. To describe a case of a 41-year-old Asian woman patient with a primary dural melanoma that arose in association with ocular melanosis and multiple cutaneous blue nevi. The association of primary dural melanoma with multiple cutaneous blue nevi has not been reported previously. Primary dural melanomas have been reported to occur in isolation or in conjunction with Nevus of Ota.
