Abstract:
Two cases of occult meningoceles are reported. The first case exhibited a combination of thoracic meningocele and neurofibromatosis with additional generalised osteomalacia. The second case was an anterior sacral meningocele. Based on these reports pathogenesis, diagnosis and therapy are discussed. The importance of myelography for the diagnosis of this condition and the indications for operative treatment are pointed out.
