MR imaging, especially T1-weighted sagittal acquisitions, exquisitely demonstrated this anatomic relationship in three relatively asymptomatic patients. Therefore, in...

Cysts and lipomas are well described in association with dysgenesis of the corpus callosum. We present an uncommon association, of a new cyst in association with an in...
