 Leptomeningeal carcinomatosis(LC)is a rare complication associated with malignant tumors. We report a case of LC diagnosed during autopsy in a patient who presented with progressive hearing loss. A 69-year-old man had a past history of early stage lung adenocarcinoma for which he underwent surgery. Despite many neurological symptoms, imaging inspections did not reveal any specific diseases. Eventually, the patient died owing to worsening respiratory condition. During autopsy, LC was diagnosed due to metastasis of lung adenocarcinoma. LC should be considered in patients with progressive bilateral hearing loss re-gardless of the malignant tumor site.
