    Area of Science:

    • Neurosurgery
    • Pediatric Neurosurgery
    • Skull Base Surgery

    Background:

    • Meningoceles and encephaloceles are congenital skull defects.
    • Understanding their origin and local behavior is crucial for diagnosis and management.

    Observation:

    • This review examines meningoceles and encephaloceles of the calvaria and skull base.
    • A specific focus is placed on nasopharyngeal cephaloceles.
    • A newly recognized variant, basioccipital nasopharyngeal cephalocele, is introduced.

    Findings:

    • The study details the origin and local behavior of these skull base anomalies.
    • The basioccipital nasopharyngeal cephalocele is presented as an additional variant within the nasopharyngeal cephalocele subgroup.
    • Clinical significance, diagnostic techniques, and surgical management strategies are discussed.

    Implications:

    • Recognition of the basioccipital nasopharyngeal cephalocele enhances diagnostic capabilities.
    • Improved understanding aids in tailoring surgical interventions for better patient outcomes.
    • This work contributes to the literature on congenital skull base malformations.
