S. Lakshmi [11] | G. Fatima Shirly Anitha [2] | S. Vinoth [3]
Abstract: Acrocallosal syndrome is characterised by classical craniofacial and digital malformations with partial or complete agenesis of corpus callosum. This is considered as a rare disorder and is included in the Rare Diseases list of the National Institute of Health (NIH), which means there are fewer than 200, 000 cases). Here we report one such rare case of acrocallosal syndrome diagnosed in a neonate with characteristic clinical features and neuroimaging findings of partial agenesis of corpus callosum and arachnoid cyst in posterior fossa.
Keywords: Acrocallosal syndrome, Corpus callosum agenesis, Posterior fossa cyst
