title: Pericallosal lipomas: MR features.
abstract: We report on six cases of pericallosal lipomas. The T1-weighted sagittal images best demonstrated the relationship between the lipoma and the corpus callosum. In four cases the lipomas surrounded the splenium of the corpus callosum and in two cases the tumors were situated posteriorly and caudally to the splenium. In no case did we encounter an exclusively dorsal pericallosal localization.
