Abstract

We have presented here a case report of Marchiafava Bignami Syndrome in a 36 years old male. Marchiafava Bignami Syndrome is a rare entity with few reports in literature across the world. This syndrome is associated with chronic alcoholism in old and aged alcoholics. The exact etiology is unclear and the clinical course can be mild to a very terrible fatal illness. The only treatment is alcohol abstinence and proper nutrition.
