Abstract
The coexistence of three cranial meningoceles in a single patient is an extremely rare event. Multiple cranial meningoceles have not been reported in the literature. The rare case of a newborn with three distinct occipital meningoceles, of which one was rudimentary, is presented. Diagnostic tools and treatment options are also reviewed.
