[A case report of sphenoidal encephalocele presenting with cerebral spinal fluid rhinorrhea].
No Shinkei Geka. Neurological Surgery 2004 January
Sphenoidal encephalocele is a rare congenital anomaly. We report a case of sphenoidal encephalocele presenting with cerebral spinal fluid rhinorrhea. A 53-years-old man suffered recurrent fever and rhinorrhea. Computed tomography demonstrated a low density area extending from the left middle cranial fossa into the left sphenoidal sinus. Bone defect was identified in the medial surface of the left middle cranial fossa. Magnetic resonance imaging with contrast medium demonstrated peripheral enhancement of the lesion. We diagnosed the lesion as sphenoidal encephalocele. Surgical repair and amputation of the encaphalocele was performed. Sphenoidal encaphalocele should be considered as a possible diagnosis for recurrent fever and rhinorrhea.
