Incidentally discovered colpocephaly and corpus callosum agenesis in asymptomatic adult patient

Abstract

The corpus callosum is the biggest commissural structure located in two brain hemispheres and it ensures the connection between cortical and subcortical neurons. The agenesis of the corpus callosum is generally diagnosed in the prenatal period or childhood. It is observed along with congenital abnormalities such as mental and motor retardation, seizures, myelomeningocele. In this article, we reported a case of colpocephaly and corpus callosum agenesis with no symptoms that diagnosed incidentally. [Cukurova Med J 2016; 41(3.000): 564-566]
