A woman presented with a mass in the left groin, which was later shown to be a sliding hernia. A bony sacral defect prompted investigation, which uncovered a massive anterior sacral meningocele. Examination, including ultrasonography and myelography, is discussed, and a surgical approach proposed.

Intrathoracic meningoceles associated with neurofibromatosis type I are rare, and the optimal treatment is still unknown. Herein, we present the case of a 48-year-old Asian female with a huge thoracic meningocele associated with cutaneous neurofibromatosis type I and kyphoscoliosis of the thoracic spine. The large thoracic meningocele was successfully treated through thoracoscopic plication.

Cranial meningoceles/encephaloceles are congenital malformations characterised by protrusion of the meninges and/or brain parenchyma because of a skull defect. Meningoceles secondary to an intracranial neoplasm have not been reported in the published literature. We report a unique case of a 42-year-old man who presented with a sudden onset of altered sensorium. Transethmoidal meningocele secondary to an intraventricular epidermoid cyst was detected on imaging.

Review
The spectrum of diseases that give rise to cephaloceles is reviewed with particular reference to conditions encountered by craniofacial teams. The broad term cephalocele contains the more focused term meningoencephalocele, which is most commonly used by craniofacial surgeons. The interesting pathology of frontoethmoidal meningoencephaloceles is described with reference to the experience of the Australian Craniofacial Unit from 1975 to 1993. Further observations supporting the uniqueness of this entity are made. Although the meningoencephalocele associated with craniofacial clefts does not in itself affect treatment, the management of frontoethmoidal meningoencephaloceles is dependent on a knowledge of their unique natural history. Long-term follow-up has allowed a number of conclusions to be reached in the light of treatment. Basal and posttraumatic encephaloceles are described with respect to their place in the classification system as well as the principles of treatment.
