Abstract

Agenesis of the corpus callosum is a relatively common malformation that may occur in isolation or in combination with other cerebral malformation. We experienced a case of agenesis of the corpus callosum in a 5/12 year old boy who showed developmental retardation. Cerebral brian CT and sonography demonstrated a typical picture of agenesis of the corpus callosum without any further abnormalities. A brief review of literature was made.
