Curvilinear pericallosal lipomas diagnosed incidentally during evaluation following trauma with corpus callosum abnormalities in two patients.

P lipomas are the most habitual location for an intracranial lipoma. They are fat-containing lesions arising from the interhemispheric fissure intimately related to the corpus callosum, which is often abnormal. They originate from aberrant differentiation of the persistent primitive meninx. Most Pericallosal lipomas are asymptomatic and come into clinical attention during neuroradiological investigations for other conditions. MRI is the modality of choice to characterize not only the extent of the lipoma but also the frequently associated agenesis/dysgenesis of the corpus callosum. Pericallosal lipomas can be divided into two groups: The Tubulonodular type and The curvilinear type. Curvilinear lipomas are less common than Tubulonodular. We report the clinical and radiological findings of curvilinear Pericallosal lipoma in two patients with corpus callosum abnormalities revealed incidentally during evaluation following trauma.
