Meningohydroencephalocele is a herniation of meninges, cerebrospinal fluid, brain parenchyma and a part of the ventricular system through a bony defect in the skull. This bone defect may be congenital, spontaneous or traumatic in origin. The lesions are mostly congenital, discovered generally after birth or in very young infants. We report the first historical case of the entity in this location in a 29-year-old man and discuss the pathogenesis, surgical management and social considerations of this type of neural tube defect in our country.
脑膜脑膨出是指脑膜、脑脊液、脑实质和部分脑室系统通过颅骨骨质缺损处突出。这种骨质缺损可能源于先天性、自发性或外伤性。病变大多为先天性，通常在出生后或婴幼儿期被发现。我们报告了首例发生于一名29岁男性该部位的此类病例，并讨论了我国这种神经管缺陷的发病机制、手术治疗及社会因素。
