Caffey award: cranial sonographic findings in meningomyelocele

Prominent choroid plexus in meningomyelocele: sonographic findings.

Of 18 infants with meningomyelocele who were examined by cranial sonography, 17 were found to have a prominent choroid plexus, especially in the region of the glomus. In almost half of the cases this prominence assumed the configuration of a stalk arising from the glomus and terminating in a clublike ending.
