case_images: On referral, physical examination revealed non-visual microphthalmia of the left eye (Figure 1) and right-sided hemiparesis.
case_images: A T2-weighted image in the left parasagittal plane. Note: the left rostral rhinencephalon protruding through the cribriform plate (arrow) into the left caudal nasal cavity. High signal fluid is present within the left caudal nasal cavity and ventral meatus

case_images: MRI revealed protrusion of the left rostral rhinencephalon through the left cribriform plate into the left caudal nasal cavity consistent with a left frontoethmoidal encephalocele (Figure 2).
case_images: A T2-weighted image of the rostral brain in the dorsal plane. Note: the left rostral rhinencephalon protruding into the left caudal nasal cavity (blue arrow). There is a small amount of high signal fluid present adjacent to the rhinencephalon. The left globe (yellow arrow) is reduced in size, elliptical in shape and the lens is absent
