title: [Intranasal encephalocele].
abstract: We present a case of an intranasal encephalocele in a 6-year old girl, that appears as an intranasal mass with CSF rhinorrhea. The surgical treatment is described, specially the extracranial step through a paralateronasal via. The embryogenesis, classification, diagnosis and management of these rare congenital lesions are discussed.
