Description

A 6 mm defect is seen over anterior aspect of face in between both orbits with a 2.6 x 2.5 cm sized cystic collection herniating through the defect possibly arising from ethmoid s/o Ethmoidal encephalocele. CSP (Cavum Septum Pellucidum) is not well visualised with bilateral parallel orientation of lateral ventricles. Third ventricle appears dilated. Splenium of corpus callosum not well visualised s/o Dysgenesis of corpus callosum. Cerebral hemispheres and Posterior fossa structure appears normal. A 6 mm defect is seen over anterior aspect of face in between both orbits with a 2.6 x 2.5 cm sized cystic collection herniating through the defect possibly arising from ethmoid s/o Ethmoidal encephalocele.
