Large Sphenoethmoidal Encephalocele Associated with Agenesis of Corpus Callosum and Cleft Palate
Basal encephalocele is a rare craniofacial anomaly. In the present paper we report a 10-year-old boy presented with cleft palate, congenital nystagmus, and hypertelorism. During preoperative evaluation for cleft palate repair, a pulsatile mass was detected in the pharynx. Magnetic resonance imaging showed sphenoethmoidal type of basal encephalocele and agenesis of corpus callosum. Neurosurgical...
متن کاملX-Linked Lissencephaly with Absent Corpus Callosum and Ambiguous Genitalia: A Case Report
Background: X-linked lissencephaly with ambiguous genitalia (XLAG) is a recently described genetic disorder, in which patients present with lissencephaly, agenesis of the corpus callosum, refractory epilepsy of neonatal onset, acquired microcephaly, and male genotype with ambiguous genitalia. XLAG is responsible for a severe neurological disorder of neonatal onset in boys. A gyration defect con...
متن کاملAssessment of sulcation of the fetal brain in cases of isolated agenesis of the corpus callosum using in utero MR imaging.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE There is gathering evidence to suggest that agenesis of the corpus callosum is associated with delayed fetal sulcation; it is possible that the corpus callosum facilitates normal gyral development. In this paper we sought to confirm whether delayed sulcation is found in fetuses with isolated agenesis of the corpus callosum as judged by in utero MR imaging. MATERIALS AND...
متن کاملFiber Tractography and Diffusion Tensor Imaging in Children with Agenesis and Dysgenesis of Corpus Callosum: A Clinico-Radiological Correlation
Background Corpus callosum is the largest commissure in human brain. It consists of tightly packed white matter tracts connecting the two cerebral hemispheres. In this study we aimed to evaluate role of fiber tractography (FT), and diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) in ped...
متن کاملVariability of Forebrain Commissures in Callosal Agenesis: A Prenatal MR Imaging Study.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Agenesis of the corpus callosum, even when isolated, may be characterized by anatomic variability. The aim of this study was to describe the types of other forebrain commissures in a large cohort of randomly enrolled fetuses with apparently isolated agenesis of the corpus callosum at prenatal MR imaging. MATERIALS AND METHODS All fetuses with apparent isolated agenesis ...
