Abstract

``Callosal agenesis'' is a misnomer. Modern imaging with magnetic resonance (MRI) allows for a detailed anatomic study of the malformation, and demonstrates that in at least 90{\%} of the cases, absence of the corpus callosum is only part of the disorder: typically, the hippocampal commissure is also missing or incomplete. Therefore, the term ``commissural agenesis,'' or ``agenesis of the (forebrain) commissures'' should rather be used [1].
