  • Title: Intrathoracic meningocele and vertebral anomalies in a case of neurofibromatosis.
    Author: Leech RW, Olafson RA, Gilbertson RL, Shook DR.
    Journal: Surg Neurol; 1978 Jan; 9(1):55-7. PubMed ID: 414367.
    Abstract:
    A case of an intrathoracic meningocele associated with vertebral scalloping, enlarged intervertebral foramina and scoliosis in neurofibromatosis without spinal or nerve root rumors is described. A markedly attenuated dura mater anteriorly was present at autopsy and may have predisposed to meningeal herniation and scalloping.
