Abstract

Encephalocele is defined as herniation of the brain tissue from a bone defect in the cranium. It may be congenital, traumatic, tumoural or develop spontaneously. Traumatic fronto-ethmoidal encephalocele is rare and should be kept in mind for patients who have suffered trauma. Early diagnosis is important in terms of preventing lifethreatening complications such as meningitis. Encephalocele and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leakage can be easily determined with basic radiological imaging methods and clinical findings. The computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings are here presented of a case with traumatic encephalocele.

Özet

Ensefalosel, kranyumdaki bir kemik defektten beyin dokusunun herniasyonu olarak tanımlanmaktadır. Konjenital, travmatik, tümöral ya da spontan olarak gelişebilir. Travmatik frontoetmoidal ensefalosel nadirdir. Travma geçiren hastalarda akılda tutulmalıdır. Tanının erken konması, menenjit gibi ölümcül komplikasyonların önlenmesi açısından önemlidir. Temel radyolojik görüntüleme yöntemleri ve klinik bulgular ile ensefalosel ve beyin omurilik sıvısı (BOS) kaçağı rahatlıkla tespit edilebilir. Bu yazıda, travmatik ensefaloselli bir olgunun bilgisayarlı tomografi (BT) ve manyetik rezonans görüntüleme (MRG) bulguları sunuldu.
