Title: Posttraumatic ethmoidal pseudomeningoencephalocele. Author: Jinkins JR. Journal: AJNR Am J Neuroradiol; 1987; 8(4):649-51. PubMed ID: 3113201.

Contrast cisternography showed this important combination of anatomic findings and aided in planning the subsequent reparative surgery.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
