Abstract

Meningocele, a rare subtype of cephalocele, can manifest in various positions and exhibit diverse characteristics. On the other hand, dacryocystocele, also a rare anatomical disorder, typically presents as a cyst located between the nose and the eye. Generally, distinguishing between these 2 lesions is not difficult. The presented case involves a fetus with suspected dacryocystocele, ultimately diagnosed postpartum as meningocele, underscoring the complexities in distinguishing between these conditions. The article details the patient's prenatal examinations, imaging findings, and the subsequent surgical intervention, highlighting the significance of meticulous diagnosis for effective prenatal management. The case illuminates the potential oversight and misdiagnosis challenges associated with atypical cephaloceles, contributing valuable insights for clinicians involved in prenatal diagnosis and management.

胎儿脑膜囊肿模仿泪囊肿的罕见病例
脑膜囊肿是头颅囊肿的一种罕见亚型,可表现为不同位置和不同特征。另一方面,泪囊也是一种罕见的解剖学疾病,通常表现为位于鼻子和眼睛之间的囊肿。一般来说,区分这两种病变并不困难。本病例中,一名胎儿疑似患有泪囊炎,产后最终被诊断为脑膜囊肿,凸显了区分这两种病症的复杂性。文章详细介绍了患者的产前检查、影像学检查结果以及随后的手术干预,强调了细致诊断对有效产前管理的重要性。该病例揭示了与不典型头畸形相关的潜在疏忽和误诊难题,为从事产前诊断和管理的临床医生提供了宝贵的见解。
