Аннотация
BACKGROUND: Transclival meningoceles and related primary spontaneous cerebrospinal fluid leaks at the clivus are extremely rare lesions, with only a few cases reported in the literature.
CASE DESCRIPTION: An infant presented with nasal airway obstruction and meningitis secondary to cerebrospinal fluid leak from a transclival meningocele. The radiologic investigation and surgical repair of the lesion are reported, along with intraoperative findings. Basic anatomy, embryology, and development of the clivus are reviewed to clarify the relationship of anatomic variants with the formation of transclival meningoceles.
CONCLUSIONS: Transclival meningocele should be considered in patients with spontaneous cerebrospinal fluid rhinorrhea. The existing classification of meningoencephaloceles based on the location of the defect in the cranium should probably be reconsidered, taking into consideration the described entity.
