[Association of occipital encephalocele with vesicoureteral reflux].
Occipital encephalocele was associated with vesicoureteral reflux and agenesis of the os coccygeum in a small-for-gestational age newborn girl. The symptoms did not correspond to any of the syndromes with encephalocele. The present observation and data of the literature suggest that the significance of vesicoureteral reflux in syndrome diagnosis is generally underestimated.
