We describe a case of an occult fronto temporo parietal meningoencephalocele discovered in a 45 days old infant baby. The most common cause for meningoenphalocele is trauma by any means during birth or during development. But here in our case there is lack of such significant history of trauma and so the possible cause of the lesion may be congenital defect only. Preoperative Clinical, CT and MR images are presented. Lesion was removed surgically with satisfactory post operative recovery. Cite this article as: Sodhi D, Chaudhari KV, Gupta S, Raval R, Shaikh AA, Kapoor A.
