Meningeal melanocytomas represent 0.06-0.1% of brain tumors.[12] In a 2003 review of 95 cases by Rahimi-Movaghar et al, 45 were intracranial (mostly supratentorial) and 50 spinal or along spinal roots.[13] The authors noted that the median age was 40 years for patients with intracranial and 49 for those with spinal tumors. Lesions were more common in women (57.9%).
