Lipoma of corpus callosum diagnosed by CT scanning--a case report.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Lipoma of corpus callosum is a rare intracranial tumour or malformation. The appearances of this tumour in computerised tomography (CT) brain scans are fairly specific. A case report is presented with a short discussion of reported cases and review of literature and CT features of the tumour (JPMA 36: 149, 1988).

Intracranial lipomas: demonstration by computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging.
We present two cases of a very rare tumor, intracranial lipoma, diagnosed by computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). In one case, the lipoma was in the superior cerebellar cistern, the other was in the periphery of the corpus callosum. In the case in which MRI was used, identification of the lipoma using a routine MRI examination was difficult. These cases are reported no...
متن کاملInterhemispheric lipoma: Interval development of an associated cyst
We report a case of an 11-year-old patient who underwent CT imaging for complications of sinusitis, and showed incidental development of an interhemispheric cyst in association with an intracranial lipoma over a 10-year interval. Cysts and lipomas are well described in association with dysgenesis of the corpus callosum. We present an uncommon association, of a new cyst in association with an in...

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 ...
متن کاملMRI of corpus callosal syndromes.
Six patients, 6 to 13 years old, with corpus callosal abnormalities diagnosed by electroencephalography or CT were studied with a 0.15 T MR imager to determine the effectiveness of MRI in evaluating midline anomalies. Spin-echo images in the coronal, axial, and sagittal planes were obtained in two patients with Aicardi's syndrome and partial agenesis of the corpus callosum, in one patient with ...
