Transsellar transsphenoidal encephalocele: a case report
Pediatr Neurosurg.
2010.
Abstract
Basal encephaloceles are rare, accounting for about 1.5% of all encephaloceles. Transsellar transsphenoidal encephaloceles are the rarest variety of basal encephaloceles. We report a rare case of transsellar transsphenoidal encephalocele managed by a transnasal transseptal approach.
