Abstract
Lipoma of the corpus callosum is a rare intracranial condition, possibly congenital. It is often asymptomatic, but may present with headaches, seizures, hemiplegia, or dementia. An example of this disease is reported, and the condition reviewed. The radiological appearance is described, with emphasis on the value of computerized tomography in making the diagnosis. Surgery is of limited value but may be required in specially selected cases.Keywords
