Myelomeningocele with hydrocephalus and agenesis of corpus callosum.
A 45-day-old male baby presented with a leaking myelomeningocele and signs of meningitis. A computerised tomographic scan of brain revealed gross supratentorial ventriculomegaly with inflammatory exudates suggestive of intracranial infection. An unexpected association of complete agenesis of corpus callosum was discovered, however it is an incidental finding, a rare combination indeed.
