OBJECTIVE To describe a clinical report pre- and post-neurofunctional intervention in a case of agenesis of the corpus callosum. CASE DESCRIPTION Preterm infant with corpus callosum agenesis and hypoplasia of the cerebellum vermis and lateral ventricles, who, at the age of two years, started the proposed intervention. Functional performance tests were used such as the neurofunctional evaluati...

Studies in patients with an isolated, congenital agenesis of the corpus callosum have documented potentials and limits of brain plasticity. Literature suggests that early reorganization mechanisms can compensate for the absence of the corpus callosum in unisensory tasks that involve interhemispheric transfer. It is unknown, however, how the congenitally acallosal brain processes multisensory in...

Transcranial magnetic stimulation of the motor cortex was performed in 10 normal subjects and 10 patients with radiographical abnormalities of the corpus callosum. Seven patients had a complete or partial agenesis or hypoplasia of the corpus callosum, two had a thin corpus callosum due to hydrocephalus or white matter degeneration and one had a circumscript contusion lesion of the corpus callos...

This article presents the Provo Corpus, a corpus of eye-tracking data with accompanying predictability norms. The predictability norms for the Provo Corpus differ from those of other corpora. In addition to traditional cloze scores that estimate the predictability of the full orthographic form of each word, the Provo Corpus also includes measures of the predictability of the morpho-syntactic an...

In this report we present the unique combination of hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia, primary hypothyroidism, and agenesis of the corpus callosum in a two year old, severely mentally retarded boy.

This report concerns a de novo reciprocal translocation between the long arms of the chromosomes 12 and 19 in a mentally retarded child with bilateral radioulnar synostosis, agenesis of the corpus callosum, and several minor congenital malformations.

A case of agenesis of the corpus callosum with a chromosomal abnormality is reported. The patient was a male infant, born to phenotypically normal, non-consanguineous parents. He had an abnormal phenotype, mental retardation, and chromosome mosaicism 46,XY/47,XY,+r. Chromosomal analysis of both parents showed a normal karotype. The origin of the small ring chromosome could not be determined and...

OBJECTIVES The purposes of this study were to construct reference limits for corpus callosum dimensions measured on images reconstructed from 3-dimensional (3D) sonography and to evaluate the reproducibility of these measurements. METHODS Three-dimensional sonographic volumes were acquired transabdominally from an axial view of the head in 361 fetuses cross-sectionally studied at 18 to 32 wee...
