Lipoma of the Corpus Callosum: Report of a Case and Review of the Literature

Intracranial lipomas are exceptionally rare congenital lesions. This article presents a case of a 68-year-old female patient who experienced chronic headaches. Imaging studies revealed a fat-density formation in the anterior corpus callosum. While most corpus callosum lipomas are asymptomatic and typically found incidentally, they can be associated with congenital malformations, particularly affecting corpus callosum development. This case underscores the importance of imaging techniques, such as CT and MRI.

Abstract

Intracranial lipomas are exceptionally rare congenital lesions. This article presents a case of a 68-year-old female patient who experienced chronic headaches. Imaging studies revealed a fat-density formation in the anterior corpus callosum. While most corpus callosum lipomas are asymptomatic and typically found incidentally, they can be associated with congenital malformations, particularly affecting corpus callosum development. This case underscores the importance of imaging techniques, such as CT and MRI.
