초록

Encephaloceles are known as rare craniofacial developmental anomalies which are herniation of cranial contents through a skull defect. Sphenoidal meningoencephalocele represents an important cause of reversible visual loss. We report a rare case of pituitary adenoma accompanying sphenoidal meningoencephalocele with clival extension. Although the definitive diagnosis of cystic lesions in the sellar region before surgery is difficult, accurate diagnosis of these lesions is important to determine the type of treatment and predict prognostic outcome.
