Abstract
The pericallosal lipoma is a very rare benign congenital lesion, which can be isolated or associated with varying degrees of dysgenesis of the corpus callosum. It is usually asymptomatic, but can be revealed by epilepsy, paresis, paralysis or headaches. CT and MR imaging play an important role in making this diagnosis. Lipoma of the corpus callosum can present as 2 different types: tubulonodular and curvilinear.. We report a case of 36-year-old woman, admitted for helmet headaches that benefited from a brain MRI revealing a curvilinear lipoma of the Corpus Callosum.
