3.Results of surgical treatment of meningoceles and menigo-encephalocelles in 16 operated cases in Saint- Paul hospital
Journal of Vietnamese Medicine 1998;231(12):167-171
During 3 years over 400 cases with neurological diseases in infants were operated on at the Dep. of Neurosurgery of Hanoi Saint-Paul hospital. Among them, there were only 16 cases with meningocele and meningo-encephalocele (congenital malformations). These patients were from 2 days to 16 months of age. To obtain good results, the diagnosis and treatment must be made early in the first days of life of the children. Results: among 16 cases: good:15, death:1

Sacrococcygeal teratoma should be differentiated from low-lying meningocele or anteriorly-locating meningocele in sacral region in neurosurgical field. The authors present a case of sacrococcygeal teratoma in 1 5 day-old girl.

There are reports showing considerable morphological abnormalities in the lumbosacral region, which are usually caused by certain diseases or simply by anatomical variations. It is possible that if a caudal block is performed in patients with these anatomical abnormalities it will either fail or another unexpected difficult situation will result. However, there is no case report regarding such issues. We experienced two cases of an unexpected dural puncture during a trial of caudal block, and one case in whom the dural puncture would most likely have been caused by a trial of caudal block. The dural punture was caused by morphological abnormalities in the lumbosacral region i.e., diffuse ectasia of the lumbosacral dura and a posterior sacral meningocele with an enlargement of the lumbosacral canal. The dural termination was located more distally in the potential dural puncture case than in the normal cases.

6.Lateral cervical meningocele.
Journal of Korean Medical Science 1992;7(2):179-183
Lateral cervical meningocele is an extremely rare developmental anomaly. We could find only one such case protruding from an enlarged C2-3 intervertebral foramen. It may be confused with an extradural cyst or cystic hygroma. Direct needling may introduce infection and thereby pyogenic meningitis and so should be avoided. Similarly, incision and drainage may transform it into cerebrospinal fluid fistula. A computed tomography scan is the most fruitful form of investigation for confirmation and localization of the disease. A lumboperitoneal shunt or water tight closure of the dural sac at the neck is the recommended procedure of choice.

Anterior sacral meningocele is a rare congenital lesion. Since its description by Bryant in 1838, less than 300 cases have been reported in the literature. The authors report a case of anterior sacral meningocele with pneumocephalus and meningitis, which was misdiagnosed as an ovarian cyst and was aspirated. The clinical, radiological, histopathological, and neurosurgical features of the lesion are discussed with a review of the literatures.

8.Intradural Spinal Teratoma Associated with Meningocele: Case Report.
Journal of Korean Neurosurgical Society 1979;8(1):157-164
Intradural spinal teratoma is very rare. A case of intradural teratoma attached to the conus medullaris associated with lumbosacral meningocele in a 16-year old boy is reported. Also comparable reported cases were reviewed in the world literature.

Journal of Korean Neurosurgical Society 1993;22(8):905-911
The Currarino triad is a unique complex of congenital caudal anormalies including anorectal malformation, sacral bony abnormality, and presacral mass. Histologically the presacral mass has been identified as a meningocele, teratoma, enteric duplication or a combination of this. A Case of female infant with this triad was presented and was successfully treated by surgery. The presacral mass was a lipomyelomeningocele. The clinical features, unique radiologic findings, and importance of a correct diagnosis of currarino triad were reviewed.
