Abstract
Three cases of the so-called rudimentary cranial meningocele/encephalocele are presented. A review of the literature yielded a number of similar cases which were tabulated and analyzed. It is suggested that this group of lesions represents neural crest remnants for which there is a good prognosis, distinct from the true meningocele/encephalocele complex.
