This report details a rare case of double spinal meningoceles in an infant. The condition, affecting thoracic and lumbar regions, involved neurological complications.

Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Pediatric Surgery
  • Radiology

Background:

  • Spinal meningoceles are rare congenital herniations of the meninges.
  • The coexistence of multiple meningoceles is exceptionally uncommon.
  • Idiopathic meningoceles are often associated with neurofibromatosis or other congenital anomalies.

Observation:

  • A three-day-old neonate presented with two distinct meningoceles.
  • Lesions were identified at both thoracic and lumbar spinal levels.
  • Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a connection between the thoracic meningocele stalk and the spinal cord.

Findings:

  • The case represents double spinal meningoceles, a highly unusual occurrence.
  • Neurological involvement was evident due to the thoracic meningocele's connection to the spinal cord.

  • This is the third reported case of double meningoceles without associated congenital anomalies or neurofibromatosis.

    • Implications:

    • This case expands the understanding of rare spinal malformations.
    • Highlights the importance of advanced imaging in diagnosing complex pediatric spinal conditions.
    • Contributes to the limited literature on isolated double meningoceles, aiding future clinical management and research.
