  • Title: Frontoethmoidal meningoencephalocele. A one-stage correction, reconstruction, and plating by means of the micro system.
    Author: Clauser L, Baciliero U, Nordera P, Curri D, Pinna V, Curioni C.
    Journal: J Craniofac Surg; 1991 Apr; 2(1):2-8. PubMed ID: 1807410.
    Abstract:
    This case report on one stage surgical treatment of meningoencephalocele offers the opportunity for a revision of the most recent trends expressed by other authors on this topic. Surgical technique involved a system of rigid fixations by means of microplates which, according to our experience in other cases, is particularly advisable in pediatric age. We find that the simultaneous utilization of calvarial bone grafts facilitates a better reconstruction of the cranial base, and also offers greater stability in results.
