Temporosphenoidal encephalocele (TSE) is a rare entity caused by herniation of the anteromedial temporal lobe into the sphenoid sinus (SS) through a middle fossa (MF) defect. A 45-year-old woman presented with a spontaneous TSE manifesting as a 4-year history of recurrent cerebrospinal fluid rhinorrhea and meningitis. Coronal computed tomography showed a skull defect in the superior wall of the right lateral recess of the SS. This homogeneous intrasphenoidal lesion appeared hypointense on T 1 -weighted magnetic resonance (MR) imaging and hyperintense on T 2 -weighted MR imaging. The patient underwent a frontotemporal craniotomy and extradural MF exploration. The encephalocele was amputated and the temporal base dura primarily sutured and reinforced with fat graft. The MF hole was plugged with temporalis fascia and a calvarial graft layered over the bone defect. Histological examination confirmed meningoencephalocele. Rhinorrhea resolved and the patient remained asymptomatic. Resection of an anteromedial TSE and closure of the craniodural defect in the MF floor via a less invasive extradural skull base approach is effective.
Objectives The purpose of this study is to explore the problem of hatred towards North Korea and to prepare specific plans for unification education. Methods To this end, first, the meaning of hatred is examined and cases of hatred toward North Korea appearing in South Korean society are explored. Second, the possibility of applying social intuitionism and social emotional learning to improve hatred problems is sought. Third, the reality of unification education to improve the problem of hatred is examined through moral class in elementary school. Results It is becoming more necessary to address the issue of hatred towards North Korea in unification education. In this regard, social intuitionism can help to reflect on perceptions and judgments caused by hatred, and social emotional learning can help guide the use of hatred expressions and emotion management of hatred. Furthermore, it can contribute to providing unification education considering the individual circumstances of students. Based on this, unification education can be carried out through second-class activities in moral education. Conclusions Unification education prepared by paying attention to the issue of hatred can contribute to recognizing North Korea as an equal and achieving peace through social integration.
