TORRINHA, Mariana Camanho Lencastre Fleming; SECO, Inês Maria Moreira Guedes Maia Nunes de Melo  y  MONTEIRO, Cristina Maria Conceição Dias. Isolated agenesis of corpus callosum - what neurological prognosis?. Acta Obstet Ginecol Port [online]. 2021, vol.15, n.4, pp.362-369.  Epub 31-Dic-2021. ISSN 1646-5830.

Corpus Callosum Agenesis (CCA) is a rare clinical entity. The diagnosis of CCA is mostly made in the prenatal period and includes genetic factors as one of the main causes for its development. Parental counseling is extremely difficult particularly in cases of isolated malformation due to the wide variety of possible clinical presentations. The article reviews this pa-thology with a particular focus on isolated agenesis of corpus callosum and its associated neurological prognosis. The analysis is essential so that parental counseling can be adequately given when this diagnosis is made in the prenatal period.
