Asymptomatic Agenesis of the Corpus Callosum Combined with Porencephalic Cyst

Neurodevelopmental Outcome of Patients With Agenesis of Corpus Callosum

Background: Agenesis of Corpus Callosum (ACC) is a type of brain dysgenesis with various clinical manifestations. Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the clinical and neurodevelopmental outcomes of patients with ACC. Materials & Methods: In this cross-sectional study, the clinical and neurodevelopmental conditions of 62 patients with complete ACC referred to subspecialty clinics of pe...

Interhemispheric arachnoid cyst with agenesis of corpus callosum.

Arachnoid cysts are benign developmental cysts that occur throughout the cerebrospinal axis in relation to the arachnoid membrane and the subarachnoid space(l). Intracranial arachnoid cysts usually occur in close proximity to arachnoid cisterns, most often in the sylvian fissure(2) and they become symptomatic in early childhood(3). We report an interhemispheric arachnoid cyst associated with ag...

Asymptomatic colpocephaly and partial agenesis of corpus callosum.

Colpocephaly (CC) can be observed in radiological findings from brain computed tomography (BCT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). These images show dilated lateral ventricles, specifically in the occipital and temporal horns, and the third ventricle. Frontal horns retain their normal size. This type of hydrocephalus of the posterior half of the brain is a congenital malformation. It can be ...

Agenesis of the Corpus Callosum

COMPLETE or partial agenesis of the corpus callosum is uncommon especially in adults; the incidence amongst patients in institutions where numerous air encephalograms are performed is 3% (Carpenter and Drukemiller, 1953). Reil (1812) published the first report of a case, describing the necropsy findings in a 30 year old woman of low mentality; further cases discovered at necropsy were subsequen...
