Background: Thick fetal corpus callosum (CC) is a rare finding and its significance in isolation is not clear. In this retrospective study, we aim to gain insight into the microarchitecture of CC in a cohort of fetuses with thick and short CC (isolated or associated with mild extra-/intracranial abnormalities) as seen on ultrasound (US), by using prenatal magnetic resonance (MR) diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) with fiber tractography, thereby allowing better characterization for postnatal prognosis.
Methods: Twelve fetuses met the inclusion criteria on US.

Gastric duplication cysts (GDCs) are rare cystic neoplasms that are often difficult to distinguish from other entities. Accurate diagnosis of cysts before resection is difficult even using the most advanced imaging techniques. We present a case of a gastric duplication cyst in a 17-year-old female, presenting with discomfort in the upper abdomen.

Background: Intracranial lipomas are a rare clinical entity. These lesions are frequently asymptomatic and originate in the pericallosal area. As they are fat-containing lesions which are intimately attached to the surrounding structures, surgery is not recommended.

Lipoma of the corpus callosum, also known as pericallosal lipoma, is a rare congenital brain abnormality associated with corpus callosum dysgenesis or agenesis. Two morphological types are described: tubulonodular and curvilinear, with the latter being mostly asymptomatic. We present the case of a 30-year-old woman with epilepsy, whose magnetic resonance imaging revealed a "caterpillar sign" in the corpus callosum associated with a curvilinear pericallosal lipoma.

Background: Diprosopus, or craniofacial duplication, is a rare entity that occurs in approximately 1 in 180,000 to 15 million live births. The degree of duplication varies from complete facial duplication to small facial structure duplication like the nose and eye. The cause of diprosopus is unknown though there are proposed factors.
