“…There were several possible surgical treatments, including a middle fossa craniotomy alone, a middle cranial fossa approach, a transmastoid approach, and a combined middle cranial fossa/transmastoid approach [10][11][12][13]. The choice of surgical approach should be driven by the etiology of the defect, the site and extent of the bony defect and the brain hernia, the type and degree of hearing loss, the presence of chronic infection in the middle ear, and the intraoperative finding of active CSF leakage.…”

“…In the presence of otologic symptoms only, recalcitrant cephalal gia may be a leading symptom [4], In radical mastoid cavities, endaural brain hernia may be suspected by otoscopy with palpation evidencing a ses sile or pedunculated mass [4. 13, 14], and pulsation and increase under Valsalva's maneuver are almost pathogno monic [4,12,14], Any mass protruding from above into a surgical mastoid cavity 'must be considered brain tissue until proved otherwise' [3]. Differential diagnosis in cludes inflammatory tissue, inclusion cholesteatoma and blue-domed cyst [3.…”

“…A trans mastoid approach may suffice in dorsolateral lesions, but often a subtemporal approach should be added [3]. Partial or total resection of the herniated, nonfunctional brain is recommended to avoid seizure activity [5], Various meth ods of membranous and bony repair of the communicat ing defect are advocated, utilizing mainly free fascia and bone grafts and pedunculated muscle flaps; the most relied upon method today uses a subtemporal approach, with resection of the contents of the hernia and oblitera tion of the bone-dura breach with a free sandwich bonefascia graft [ 1,[3][4][5][11][12][13][14][15][16],…”

“…Mit der Entwicklung einer Enzephalozele muss bereits ab einer Defektgröße von 2 mm der Laterobasis gerechnet werden [6]. Durch chronische Entzündungprozesse scheint die Dura weicher und damit anfälliger für eine Herniation von Hirngewebe zu werden [5,7]. Eine Liquorrhoe fehlt typischerweiser, da die prolabierte Hirnmasse als Tamponade wirkt [8].…”

“…Mit einer Enzephalozele muss in allen Fällen gerechnet werden, bei denen sich in der Otoskopie eine zystische Raumforderung zeigt und die Anamnese ein Trauma, eine chronische Otitis media oder eine otochirurgische Intervention beinhaltet [7]. Je nach Lokalisation erkennt man typischerweise eine weiche pulsierende Masse, die sich bei Zunahme des intrakraniellen Drucks oder bei Durchführen des Valsalva-Manövers vergrößert und die Pulsation nachläßt.…”
