Eighteen cases of a congenital cystic swelling located over the anterior fontanelle are described in Nigerian patients who were otherwise clinically normal, There was a female: male ratio of 2: 1. Radiologically and at operation, the cysts showed no evidence of intracranial connexion. Excision was curative. Of 14 cases which were histologically verified, all were dermoid cysts except one in which nerve tissue was present suggesting an encephalocele. Air cystography was the most useful diagnostic procedure.
本文描述了18例尼日利亚患者，他们临床上并无其他异常，却在前囟处出现先天性囊性肿物，男女比例为2:1。经放射学检查及手术发现，囊肿并无颅内连通的迹象。手术切除可治愈。在14例经组织学证实的病例中，除1例存在神经组织提示脑膨出外，其余均为皮样囊肿。空气造影术是最有用的诊断方法。
