Abstract

Agenesis of the Corpus Callosum (ACC) is a cerebral malformation which belongs to the midline diseases; its prevalence is difficult to specify.It is characterized by clinical and etiological heterogeneity. It can be complete or partial, associated or not to other malformations. Thanks to the progress of imagery techniques and genetics, the diagnosis of this malformation is possible early, even in the antenatal period. We report here the case of a patient with an ACC, discovered in an elderly person after the occurrence of late psychiatric disorders.
