Intracranial @entity3 of central nervous system are relatively common in @entity1 with systemic @entity5 . Computed tomography (CT) scans of 60 @entity1 of intracranial metastatic disease of unknown primaries, at the time of surgery, were retrospectively analyzed. These @entity1 primarily presented with @entity51 . They were operated upon for various reasons and histopathological diagnosis was obtained. There were 39 male and 21 female @entity1 , with age range of 18 to 74 years. The common clinical symptoms were raised intracranial pressure without lateralization, acute onset @entity1158 and @entity410 . @entity129 were observed in 4 @entity1 . Histopathologically the @entity1504 consisted of metastatic @entity420 (32 cases) or metastatic @entity957 (28 cases). Among cases of @entity420 , CT revealed solitary lesions in 17 and multiple lesions in 13 cases. Two had extraaxial deposition in the region of petrous apex. Out of @entity957 , 17 lesions were solitary, while 10 were multiple and one had extraaxial deposition in the region of petrous apex. This study is unique as it consisted of CT features of intracranial @entity3 of unknown primary @entity5 elsewhere in the body.
