An encephalocele is a protrusion of the cranial contents beyond the normal confines of the skull through a defect in the skull and the facial bones. Encephaloceles are classified according to their contents, site of exit through the skull/facial bones, and the path traversed through the face. Sincipital encephaloceles are the most common variety seen in the Asian population. Sincipital encephaloceles have been classified by Suwanwela and Suwanwela (1972) into frontoethmoidal, interfrontal, and those associated with craniofacial clefts. Correction of encephaloceles can be done in 1 stage or multiple stages and consists of excision of the encephalocele sac, repair of the bony defect, correction of hypertelorism/telecanthus, and correction of associated deformities such as trigonocephaly and the "long nose."
