Abstract: Encephalocele is a rare malformation consisting in herniation of cranial contents through a cranial defect. A transsphenoidal location is uncommon, representing 5% of all basal encephaloceles. The surgical treatment of transsphenoidal encephaloceles is challenging. An… read more here.

Abstract: Congenital transsphenoidal encephalocele (CTE) surgical correction is a challenging procedure. Although rare, this anomaly, characterized with neural herniation elements, including the pituitary gland or optic pathway through the sphenoid bone with anatomical alteration, can be… read more here.

Abstract: Transsphenoidal encephalocele (TSE) is a rare type of basal encephalocele (BE) with a reported incidence of 1 in 700 000 live births. Clinical presentation is often insidious with a large herniation protrudes through the nasopharynx containing… read more here.
