OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to evaluate the associated intracranial
malformations in patients with sincipital encephaloceles. MATERIALS AND METHODS:
A hospital-based cross-sectional study was conducted over 8 years from June 2007
to May 2015 on 28 patients. The patients were evaluated by either computed
tomography or magnetic resonance imaging whichever was feasible. Encephaloceles
were described with respect to their types, contents, and extensions. A note was
made on the associated malformations with sincipital encephaloceles. RESULTS:
Fifty percent of the patients presented before the age of 3 years and both the
sexes were affected equally. Nasofrontal encephalocele was the most common type
seen in 13 patients (46.4%), and corpus callosal agenesis (12 patients) was the
most common associated malformation. Other malformations noted were arachnoid
cyst (10 patients), hydrocephalus (7 patients), and agyria-pachygyria complex (2
patients). CONCLUSION: Capital Brain malformations are frequently encountered in
children with sincipital encephaloceles. Detail radiological evaluation is
necessary to plan treatment and also to prognosticate such rare malformations.
