Agenesis of the corpus callosum is an uncommon abnormality; excluding the case reported, there are some 209 examples of complete or partial agenesis in the literature. All age groups are represented but many cases are diagnos...
normal individuals. The clinical symptoms that lead to the diagnostic procedures are usually convulsions, abnormal growth of the head, and mental retardation. Agenesis of the corpus callosum has been found at autopsy in individuals who during life have had no known symptoms from the centralnervous ...
In rural India, it is fairly common for infants to be brought in with symptoms such as failure to gain weight and a history of recurrent respiratory tract infections. Congenital Heart Disease (CHD) is often associated with various syndromes, including Down syndrome, Turner syndrome, Holt-oram, ...

Autism spectrum disorders (ASD) have numerous etiologies, including structural brain malformations such as agenesis of the corpus callosum (AgCC). We sought to directly measure the occurrence of autism traits in a cohort of individuals with AgCC and to investigate the neural underpinnings of this ass...
The corpus callosum, the largest white matter inter-hemispheric pathway, is involved in language and communication. In a cohort of 15 children and adolescents (8–15 years) with developmental absence of the corpus callosum (AgCC), this study aimed to describe language and everyday communication fu...
Complete section of the corpus callosum and anterior commissure, at a single operation, produces a set of specific and enduring behavioural symptoms that may be directly correlated with loss of the forebrain commissures (Sperry 1974). By contrast, congenital absence of the corpus callosum is notable...

Seizures, mental handicap and axial hypotonia are often the first symptoms of agenesis of the corpus callosum (CA). The clinical pattern varies according to the anatomical findings and aetiology. Indeed, there is a wide spectrum of brain malformations which involve CA. CA is by no means a ...
