Cephaloceles
Cephaloceles are protrusions of intracranial contents through a defect in the skull.
Cephaloceles can also be distinguished by their location.
The most common location for a cephalocele is in the occipital region
However, cephaloceles may also have frontal and parietal positions.
Cephaloceles are common findings in Meckel-Gruber syndrome and have varying sonographic appearances bases on their content.
