A 54-year-old male presented with the history of headache and vomiting. MRI of the head showed right posterior temporal mass which was surgically excised. Histopathological examination revealed features of glioblastoma with pigmented cells. The pigment was demonstrated to be melanin which was confirmed by special stains and immunohistochemistry. This is the first description of glioblastoma with melanotic differentiation reported in the literature. The relevant literature is briefly reviewed.
