A case of a rare primary cerebral leiomyosarcoma in an 8-year-old male is described. The patient presented with a new-onset seizure disorder and was found to have a rapidly expanding left parietal extra-axial lesion, documented by radiological imagings. The patient underwent surgical resection of the leiomyosarcoma, as well as adjuvant radiotherapy and chemotherapy. He is still surviving to date in stable neurological condition. The clinical presentation, surgical procedure, pathological findings and post-operative clinical course will be reported. The possible etiology of this rare extra-axial neoplasm is discussed.
