A bolt from the blue: A rare case of agenesis of corpus callosum with colpocephaly in a 32-weeks pregnant woman presenting as eclampsia

Abstract

Agenesis of Corpus Callosum (ACC) is a developmental anomaly that occurs as an isolated abnormality of the central nervous system or as a component of syndromes with other structural abnormalities. This report briefs about a 26-year-old G2P1L1 with 32 weeks of gestation admitted at the institution with complaint of having continuous seizures at home for about 20 minutes. Patient was taken up for Emergency LSCS under general anaesthesia in view of eclamptic seizures with an unfavourable cervix and delivered a female premature baby of weight 1.4 kg. This case is reported since, it presented as a diagnostic dilemma either to be classified as an eclamptic seizure or seizures due to neuro-developmental abnormality.
