The pericallosal lipoma mimicking deep cerebral vein thrombus.

To cite: Ogul H, Pirimoglu B, Ozbek S, et al. BMJ Case Rep Published online: [please include Day Month Year] doi:10.1136/ bcr-2013-010025 DESCRIPTION A 44-year-old woman with headache was referred to our institution for further investigation. An MRI of the brain showed that linear hyperintense radiological appearances at the trace of the inferior sagittal sinus and the vein of Galen on T1-weigh...

MR imaging of pericallosal lipoma.

Early pathologic reports of corpus callosal lipoma described a consistent relationship between the lipoma and the dorsal surface of the corpus callosum, particularly when the lipoma is not associated with corpus callosal agenesis. MR imaging, especially T1-weighted sagittal acquisitions, exquisitely demonstrated this anatomic relationship in three relatively asymptomatic patients. Therefore, in...

A Rare Case of Pericallosal-Interhemispheric Lipoma

We are reporting a case of interhemispheric-pericallosal lipoma, associated with bilateral small lateral ventricle choroid plexuses and third ventricle lipoma as well as partial agenesis of splenium of corpus callosum. Presentation in our case does not correspond to existing classification of pericallosal lipoma and as it is very rare, we are presenting it as a case report. Intracranial lipoma ...

Fetal Pericallosal Lipoma: US and MR Findings

We report a case of fetal pericallosal lipoma occurring at the anterior interhemispheric fissure and associated with agenesis of the corpus callosum. During targeted prenatal ultrasonography at 26 weeks' gestation, the lesion was seen as a highly echogenic mass. MR imaging performed at 35 weeks' gestation and during the postnatal period revealed a pericallosal fatty mass and agenesis of the cor...
