Abstract
Intranasal encephaloceles are rarely encountered in pediatric neurosur gery. The symptoms and clinical features may mimic those of nasal poly p. 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 local ization of the cranial bone defect.
