Interhemispheric lipoma associated with agenesis of corpus callosum in an infant: case report.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Agenesis of the corpus callosum is an anomaly that may occur as isolated or in association with other central nervous system or systemic malformations. We report the case of an infant antenatal diagnosed with ventriculomegaly referred in the postnatal period to our department for imaging evaluation. Ultrasonography showed the absence of the corpus callosum and an interhemispheric lesion highly suggestive for a cerebral lipoma. The diagnosis was confirmed through MRI.

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 کاملA Rare Case of Pericallosal-Interhemispheric Lipoma
We are reporting a case of interhemispheric-pericallosal lipoma, associated with bilateral small lateral ventricle choroid plexuses and third ventricle lipoma as well as partial agenesis of splenium of corpus callosum. Presentation in our case does not correspond to existing classification of pericallosal lipoma and as it is very rare, we are presenting it as a case report. Intracranial lipoma ...
متن کاملFetal Pericallosal Lipoma: US and MR Findings
We report a case of fetal pericallosal lipoma occurring at the anterior interhemispheric fissure and associated with agenesis of the corpus callosum. During targeted prenatal ultrasonography at 26 weeks' gestation, the lesion was seen as a highly echogenic mass. MR imaging performed at 35 weeks' gestation and during the postnatal period revealed a pericallosal fatty mass and agenesis of the cor...
متن کاملA Case of Hypogonadotropic Hypogonadism in Association with Interhemispheric Lipoma and Hypoplasia of the Corpus Callosum
Isolated hypogonadotropic hypogonadism is characterized by impaired gonadotropin release in the context of normal anatomical and functional anterior pituitary function. The conditions usually responsible for hypogonadotropic hypogonadism are: pituitary adenoma, neoplastic metastasis, granulomatous processes, lymphocitary hypophysitis, histiocytosis X, hemochromatosis, vascular pathologies. We p...
