Corpus callosum agenesis (CCA) was evaluated by ultrasound examination and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in 14 cases. Ultrasonography was able to suspect CCA by indirect signs but a definitive diagnosis of CCA was achieved in only four cases. MRI was able to diagnose complete CCA in 13 cases and
The value of CT in the easy diagnosis of lipomas and associated anomalies of the corpus callosum, thus avoiding angiography and pneumoencephalography, is reported in five cases. An angiogram was performed in only one of the five cases and provided no additional diagnostic information.
