case_images: The ultrasound images (A-C), Doppler image (D), and 3D images (E and F) at 30 weeks 2 days reveal a cystic structure between the nose and the right eye.

case_images: At the 30-week and 2-day examination, the cyst's characteristics remained unchanged, measuring about 22 mm x 32 mm (Figure 1).
case_images: The postnatal images, in profile view (A) and in a frontal view (B), depict a large cystic structure in the region between the nose and the right eye, obscuring the right eye.

case_images: Postpartum, a protruding cystic structure was observed on the right side, causing elevation, and obscuring the right eye (Figure 2).
case_images: Axial T2W (A), FLAIR (B), DWI (C), ADC (D), T2* (E), T1W (F), T1W Gado (G), and sagittal T1W Gado (H) MR images show a cystic structure (asterisks) occupying most of the patient's upper face. The signal of the mass content does not match the typical characteristics of pure cerebrospinal fluid and does not resemble brain tissue with noise components (arrows). Sagittal T1W Gado image shows a location that is likely to communicate with the cerebrospinal fluid space (circle).

case_images: There was a bony defect site that was suspicious for the cystic mass communicating with the intracranial cavity and raised suspicion of meningocele (Figure 3).
case_images: The images taken preoperatively (A-C), intraoperatively (D), and immediately postoperatively (E).

case_images: Ligation of the hernia and excision of the cyst outside the skull were performed, followed by placement of a prosthetic plate covering the defect (Figure 4).
case_images: The images 5 days post-surgery (A) and 15 days post-surgery (B).

case_images: Mild swelling of the face was noted postoperatively (Figure 5A), which gradually resolved, leading to the patient's discharge 15 days later (Figure 5B).
