The uncommon variants amongst 619 cases of craniospinal dysraphism have been studied between 1987 to 1993. Lateral cervical meningocele is an extremely rare condition as to date only ten cases are traceable in the world literature. Its pathogenesis is discussed in detail. Similarly, this case of lateral frontal encephalocele is the second such example. Orbital meningocele may be congenital or following trauma to the orbital roof. Besides other unusual locations like the vertex, posterior fontanelle and anterior sacral are also encountered. Thus this paper focuses on the aetiology, clinical presentation and management of uncommon types of craniospinal meningo-encephaloceles.
1987年至1993年间，对619例颅脊柱神经管闭合不全病例中的罕见变异进行了研究。外侧颈脑脊膜膨出是一种极其罕见的病症，迄今为止，世界文献中仅能查到10例。本文对其发病机制进行了详细讨论。同样，该例外侧额脑膨出是此类病例中的第二例。眶内脑脊膜膨出可能是先天性的，也可能是眶顶外伤后所致。除了其他不常见的部位，如头顶、后囟和骶前也有发现。因此，本文重点关注不常见类型的颅脊柱脑脊膜脑膨出的病因、临床表现及治疗。
