Abstract : An 18-month-old boy presented with global developmental delay since early infancy, with developmental age of 6 months without any dissociation along different domains. Vision and hearing were apparently normal. He was born to non-consanguineous parents at term with a smooth perinatal transition. There were no antenatal complications, although level II sonography was not done. He was hypotonic with an age-appropriate head circumference (47 cm). MRI of brain revealed a rare peculiar developmental malformation (callosal agenesis and an interhemispheric cyst communicating with lateral ventricles; figure 1). He was initiated on rehabilitative measures and parents were counselled regarding the prognosis.
