Aicardi syndrome
Definition: Aicardi syndrome is a rare genetic disorder characterized by infantile spasms (jerking), absence of the corpus callosum (the connection between the two hemispheres of the brain), mental retardation, and lesions of the retina of the eye or optic nerve.
Causes, incidence, and risk factors: The cause of Aicardi syndrome is unknown at this time, but is presumed to be a genetic disorder carried on the X-chromosome in some cases and a random, sporadic mutation in others. There are less than 500 cases of Aicardi worldwide.

This disorder is characterized by infantile spasms (jerking), absence of the corpus callosum, either partial or complete, mental retardation, and lesions or lacunae of the retina or optic nerve. There are less than 500 cases of Aicardi worldwide. Causes and Risks The cause of Aicardi syndrome is unknown at this time, but is presumed to be an x-linked genetic disorder and a random, sporadic mutation; not a hereditary condition.

Ency. home Disease A Aicardi syndrome Overview Symptoms Treatment Symptoms Children are most commonly diagnosed with Aicardi Syndrome between the ages of three months and five months when, according to Doctor Jean Aicardi, the classic criteria, listed below, are met:
  • Female sex (or XXY genotype male)
  • Retinal lacunae - lesions of the retina
  • Seizures. Typically beginning as infantile spasms a type of epileptic disorder in infants
  • Agenesis of the corpus callosum (complete or partial)
    refers to the congenital absence of the brain's corpus callosum the massive formation of nerve fibers bridging the two cerebral hemispheres
The classic criteria remains the cornerstone of diagnosis in most patients, but in rare cases one of the features, especially agenesis of the corpus callosum, may be missing. The diagnosis can probably be made in such cases if two or more of the criteria below are present:
  • Cortical malformations, mostly microgyria, abnormal formations in the brain, in the case of microgyria it appears as an abnormal narrowness of the gyri. Gyri are the rounded elevations on the outside of the brain.
  • Periventricular and subcortical heterotopia
    a misplacement of groups of neurons in the brain sometimes found in seizure disorders
  • Cysts around the 3rd ventricle and/or choroid plexuses cysts in specific areas of the brain
  • Papillomas of choroid plexuses a benign non-cancerous tumor found in a specific section of the brain
