After inspection and radiological examinations, meningocele
was suspected on a 2-day old Brown swiss male calf which
was brought dead to the Department of Pathology, Faculty
of Veterinary Medicine in Dicle University. As a result of the
anatomopathologic analysis, a saclike protrusion that was 17x15
cm sized fluctuant and covered with a hairy skin was observed
on frontal squama. In the pouch, approximately 200 mL serous
fluid mixed with blood were seen. The brain was also protrused
with meninges rostro-dorsal to frontal region. Ethmoid bone was
formed rudimentary, so ethmoid labyrinths was not detected in
this region. On the other hand, absences of nasal bone, nasal
part of frontal bone, nasal conchae and rostral half of hard
palate were detected. Cerebral hypoplasia with macrogyria was
evident. In conclusion, rarely observed meningoencephalocele
