CEPHALOCELE

"A cephalocele is a birth defect where the brain protrudes through an opening in the skull."

"The infant was diagnosed with a frontal cephalocele during a routine ultrasound."

"Surgery is often required to repair a cephalocele and protect the brain."

"A large cephalocele may cause neurological symptoms such as seizures or developmental delays."

"The exact cause of cephaloceles is unknown, but they are thought to result from a combination of genetic and environmental factors."
