Imaging findings in 26 patients with spontaneous lateral sphenoid cephaloceles were studied. The authors were able to classify these lesions into those involving the lateral recess of the sphenoid sinus that typically manifested as CSF leaks and headaches, and a second type that involved the lateral sphenoidal wing without extension into the sinus and presented with a variety of findings including seizures, headaches, meningitis, or neuropathy, or were incidental. All patients showed sphenoid arachnoid pits and 61% had an empty or partially empty sella.
