Abstract:
Intranasal encephaloceles are rarely encountered in pediatric neurosurgery. The symptoms and clinical features may mimic those of nasal polyp. It is important to know the type of basal encephalomeningocele for appropriate surgical intervention. Computed tomographic examination is helpful for differential diagnosis of the encephalocele sac and localization of the cranial bone defect.
