We assessed the presence of poor interhemispheric communication in agenesis of the corpus callosum (ACC) and hydrocephalus.
With specially designed tests, nine children with ACC were investigated and compared with 11 controls to see the degree of impairment present. Two subjects with a stretched corpus callosum due to hydrocephalus also were tested. A subject with the corpus callosum divided was tested for comparison.
Significant differences were found in tests of coordination and stereognosis both with ACC patients and the callosotomy subject. No impairments were found in the hydrocephalics.
When compared with controls, ACC patients perform poorly in several tests. The callosotomy patient also showed evidence of impairment similar to that of the ACC patients.
我们评估了胼胝体发育不全(ACC)和脑积水患者中半球间沟通不良的情况。
通过专门设计的测试,对9名ACC患儿进行了调查,并与11名对照组进行比较,以观察存在的损伤程度。还对2名因脑积水导致胼胝体拉长的受试者进行了测试。对一名胼胝体分离的受试者进行了测试以作比较。
在协调性和实体觉测试中,ACC患者和胼胝体切开术受试者均存在显著差异。脑积水患者未发现损伤。
与对照组相比,ACC患者在多项测试中表现不佳。胼胝体切开术患者也表现出与ACC患者类似的损伤迹象。
