Improve Patient

Encephaloceles are considered neural tube defects, but their exact cause is unknown. The outcome is dismal, and essential management and counseling are needed for patients. Two-dimensional and three-dimensional sonography can be used to detect encephaloceles as early as 11 weeks, assist in treatment planning, and improve patient care. This case report presents an occipital encephalocele diagnosed by sonography and followed until delivery.

Neural tube defects (NTDs) arethe most common congenital malformations affecting the brain and spinal cord. Furthermore, meningomyelocele (MMC) is said to be one of the commonest NTDs. Multiple MMC is uncommon and bilobed sac is even rarer, comparatively. In literature, only few such cases have been reported. Here, we present a rare case of bilobed thoracic MMC operated successfully in our department.

Abstract Background Triple neural tube defects are rare. To the author’s knowledge, there are only four reported cases available in the literature up to date. Controversies exist with regards to the development of neural tube defects. We revisit the multisite closure theory and try to explain the mechanism of neural tube defects in our case. Case presentation We report a case of one-month-old baby boy who presented to us with three distinct neural tube defects. He had occipital and cervical encephaloceles along with thoracolumbar myelomeningocele accompanied by syrinx and mild hydrocephalus. All the three defects were surgically corrected with good neurological outcome. Conclusion In the multisite model of human neural tube closure, there are only two fusion sites and two neuropores unlike in mouse. This can explain the origin of open neural tube defects including anencephaly and myelomeningocele (as in our case) but cannot account for the development of encephalocele, which appears to be a post neurulation defect.
