Medulloblastoma is the most common primary central nervous system tumor of childhood. Medulloblastoma can metastasize along the neuraxis and to extraneural locations, but multiple intramedullary spinal metastases are very rare. The usual presenting clinical features are related to posterior fossa syndrome and/or hydrocephalus. We describe a unique case of medulloblastoma with multiple intramedullary lesions at the D-7 and D-12 levels.
