Spontaneous, idiopathic nasal meningoencephaloceles are herniations of arachnoid/dura and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) through anatomically fragile sites within the skull base. Empty sella syndrome occurs when intracranial contents herniate through the sellar diaphragm filling the sella turcica with CSF and giving the radiographic appearance of an absent pituitary gland. The objective of this study was to examine the association between spontaneous encephaloceles/CSF leaks and empty sella syndrome because of their similar clinical features and potential common pathophysiology.
