ABSTRACT
Corpus callosal infarcts are rare because of a rich collateral blood supply and are associated with systemic vasculitides, emboli, major ischemic stroke, or subfalcine herniation with mass effect. The splenium is most commonly affected, followed by the body and genu. CT lacks the necessary contrast resolution to identify mild edema associated with callosal infarcts. On MRI, reduced diffusivity on diffusion-weighted imaging is the earliest sign, followed by edema with T2 hyperintensity and T1 hypointensity. We present a case of corpus callosum infarction in a three-month child who presented to us with complaints of fever, decreased acceptance, severe asphyxia and decreased tone. The child was a known case of tuberculosis with a family history of tuberculosis also present in the mother. Diagnosed was made on the basis of Diffusion-Weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW imaging) and treated conservatively.
Key-words: Corpus callosum infarct, Diffusion-weighted imaging.
