Abstract EN
We report a rare case of a temporal bone encephalocele after a canal wall down mastoidectomy performed to treat chronic otitis media with cholesteatoma.
The patient was treated successfully via an intracranial approach.
An enhanced layer-by-layer repair of the encephalocele and skull base deficit was achieved from intradurally to extradurally, using temporalis fascia, nasal septum cartilage, and artificial dural graft.
After a 22-month follow-up period the patient remains symptom free and no recurrence is noted.
