Primary leptomeningeal low-grade Schwann cell neoplasm.

We discuss an extremely rare case of low-grade Schwann cell leptomeningeal neoplasm with no evident intradural primary, presenting with rapid neurological decline leading to death reflecting the aggressive biological behaviour of this entity despite its low-grade morphology. Notwithstanding extensive investigations, the diagnosis was only established on autopsy as clinical presentation is non-specific making diagnosis challenging. This condition could be considered in patients presenting with leptomeningeal disease if initial workup of more common causes is non-revealing.
