The presence of symmetric and bilateral cerebral metastases of melanoma is also uncommon. We report the case of a 34 year-old man who was admitted to hospital with seizures and a three-month history of headache, with blurred vision during the past month. A previous history of melanoma resection was obtained. CT of the skull showed bilateral heterogeneous hypodense lesions in the occipito-temporal regions, with a ring pattern of contrast enhancement. Surgical resection of both metastatic lesions was performed after which the patient developed visual agnosia and prosopagnosia. On follow-up, he showed partial recovery of visual agnosia, while prosopagnosia was still evident. The relevance of this case is the rare presentation of metastatic malignant melanoma affecting homologous occipito-temporal areas associated with prosopagnosia and associative visual agnosia.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1590\/s1980-57642008dn10100016","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,7,25]],"date-time":"2017-07-25T13:42:50Z","timestamp":1500990170000},"page":"104-107","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Visual agnosia and prosopagnosia secondary to melanoma met\u00e1stases: Case report"],"prefix":"10.1590","volume":"1","author":[{"given":"Norberto An\u00edzio Ferreira","family":"Frota","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"University of S\u00e3o Paulo,  Brazil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"L\u00e9cio Figueira","family":"Pinto","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of S\u00e3o Paulo,  Brazil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Claudia Sellitto","family":"Porto","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Unit Psychology,  Brazil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Paulo Henrique Pires de","family":"Aguia","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of S\u00e3o Paulo,  Brazil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Luiz Henrique Martins","family":"Castro","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of S\u00e3o Paulo,  Brazil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Paulo","family":"Caramelli","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Federal University of Minas Gerais,  Brazil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"530","reference":[{"key":"ref1","series-title":"Principles of behavioral and cognitive neurology","first-page":"332","volume-title":"Disorders of complex visual processing","author":"Damasio AR","year":"2000","edition":"2th"},{"key":"ref2","series-title":"Visual object agnosia.
