Incidentally discovered colpocephaly and corpus callosum agenesis in asymptomatic elderly patient

Colpocephaly is very rare anatomic finding in the brain manifested by occipital horns that are disproportionately enlarged in comparison with other parts of the lateral ventricles. It is usually diagnosed prenatally by ultrasound or in early childhood when the patient presents with delayed mile stones, seizures, mental retardation, motor and sensory deficit. We present a case of colpocephaly and corpus callosum agenesis that diagnosed in a sixty six years old African American woman that did not suffer from any seizures, cognitive, motor or sensory disability prior to her current admission.
