A member asked:
What does this mri finding mean if large septum cavum?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably normal: The septum pellucidum is a normal midline structure in the brain. When this thin membrane is split it forms a cavity. This may represent a normal anatomic variant or a incomplete form of midline developmental anomalies such as dysgenesis of the corpus callosum. Enlarged cavum septum pellucidum have variously been associated with schizophrenia, affective disorder&other neuropsychiatric disorders.
