title: [Agenesis of the corpus callosum].
abstract: This paper presents a case of a sixteen-year-old female patient with agenesis of corpus callosum which was accidentally discovered during etiological investigation of the consciousness disorder. Agenesis of corpus callosum, a rare congenital defect, might be associated with macrocephalia and various degrees of mental impairment, optic defects, and seizures. Apart from patients with these pathologic states, there are individuals with agenesis of corpus callosum, but without any clinical disturbances.
