ABSTRACT
Meningoencephalocele in the anterior part of the cranium is a rare congenital anomaly and has been sparsely reported in the neurologic literature. Recently we encountered a case of bilateral frontoethmoidal meningoencephalocele in a 3-year-old otherwise healthy boy. The cranial ends of the tumors were amputated by bifrontal craniotomy and dural defect was tightly repaired with Neodura. The external portions of the tumors were excised at the second stage and double-limbed YV shaped canthoplasty was performed. Postoperatively, the patient recovered uneventfully without any complication.
