Bilateral Orbital Meningocele Without Frontoethmoidal Meningocephalocele: A Rare Presentation

Bilateral orbital meningocele is a rare congenital abnormality. In our review, no case was reported from Southeast Asia which has reported bilateral orbital meningocele with frontoethmoidal meningocephalocele. Frontoethmoidal meningocephalocele has many extracranial manifestations out of which orbital meningocele are one of them. In this study, we are reporting a case of a 4 years old male child presenting with bilateral exophthalmos and gradual loss of vision bilaterally. He underwent CT and MRI that showed bilateral intraorbital, extraconal mass lesions displacing the orbit. Cribriform plate was low lying with herniation of brain parenchyma in frontal region anteriorly. These findings were later proved to be similar post operatively.
