Preferred Label : encephalocele;
MeSH definition : Brain tissue herniation through a congenital or acquired defect in the skull. The
majority of congenital encephaloceles occur in the occipital or frontal regions. Clinical
features include a protuberant mass that may be pulsatile. The quantity and location
of protruding neural tissue determines the type and degree of neurologic deficit.
Visual defects, psychomotor developmental delay, and persistent motor deficits frequently
occur.;
