Colpocephaly is the disproportionate enlargement of the occipital horns of the lateral ventricles. It is usually diagnosed in the neonatal period or early childhood due to symptom severity. Adult cases of colpocephaly are rarely reported and often incidentally diagnosed. We report a case of colpocephaly with partial agenesis of the corpus callosum in a 30-year-old female with no past medical history. The patient presented after a syncopal episode with associated complaints of dizziness, vomiting, and chronic intermittent headaches. This case highlights the clinical and radiological features of colpocephaly in adults.
脑室后角增宽是指侧脑室枕角不成比例地扩大。由于症状严重，通常在新生儿期或幼儿期被诊断出来。成人脑室后角增宽的病例很少被报道，且常常是偶然诊断出来的。我们报告一例30岁无既往病史女性患有脑室后角增宽合并胼胝体部分发育不全的病例。该患者在一次晕厥发作后出现，伴有头晕、呕吐和慢性间歇性头痛等症状。本病例突出了成人脑室后角增宽的临床和影像学特征。
