Background: Acid sphingomyelinase deficiency (ASMD) type A/B, a rare lysosomal storage disorder caused by biallelic mutations in the SMPD1 gene, presents with variable visceral and neurological manifestations. Arnold-Chiari malformation is a structural defect of the cerebellum and brainstem with distinct pathogenesis and clinical course. To our knowledge, the coexistence of these two conditions has not been previously reported.

Background: Pheochromocytoma (PCC) is a rare neuroendocrine tumor, with 10-15% of cases showing malignant behavior defined by metastatic spread, including exceptionally rare central nervous system (CNS) involvement. Brain metastases present unique diagnostic and therapeutic challenges due to their potential to impair neurological function. This study reports a case of malignant PCC (mPCC) with CNS metastases and a systematic review to clarify the clinical patterns, management strategies, and prognostic factors.
