Abstract

Parietal foramina are symmetrical bone defects adjacent to the sagittal suture and are not usually associated with other malformations. A case is described in which scalp tumors protruded through the foramina and proved to be meningoceles. No such cases appear to have been previously reported. The possible developmental mechanisms are discussed.
