Mid-line defect: Agenesis of the corpus callosum may be associated with other brain abnormalities. How a child would be with agenesis of the corpus callosum depends on the extent of other associated findings. Optic nerve hypoplasia, pituitary abnormalities, developmental delays, and other neurological problems are associated with this. Please see http://www.Ninds.Nih.Gov/disorders/agenesis/agenesis.Htm.

Varies : Acc can vary from absolutely normal outcome to very bad depending on associated issues. Acc is occasionally found on autopsy in normal folks that died of natural causes. I have had patients that were picked up on prenatal ultrasound that grew & developed normally.Acc can also be part of chromosome defects or syndromes which may have various deficiencies in development & learning.
