Symptoms: Children are most commonly diagnosed with Aicardi Syndrome between the ages of three months and five months, if they meet the following criteria: 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 Absence of the corpus callosum (complete or partial)

Extractions: PatientPlus articles are written for doctors and so the language can be technical. However, some people find that they add depth to the articles found in the other sections of this website which are written for non-medical people. This is a rare genetic condition characterised by complete or partial absence of the corpus callosum (the central part of the brain that connects the right and left sides.) There are other related neurological features. Epidemiology Prevalence There are probably between 300 and 500 cases worldwide. It has been reported in just one of two homozygous twins , cases occur as spontaneous mutations - does not tend to run in families. It affects girls almost exclusively. The few males that demonstrate the disease have Klinefelters syndrome (47XXY). The lesion has been gene mapped to the X chromosome (X linked dominant) and is lethal to the male fetus who has no second X chromosome, but females or Klinefelter's syndromes may survive on the basis of the normal other X chromosome. Presentation The disease is usually identified between 3 and 5 months old. Most had normal births and seemed to be developing normally until they had infantile spasms.

Please check the synonyms listing to find the alternate name(s) and disorder subdivision(s) covered by this report. Aicardi Syndrome is an extremely rare congenital disorder in which the structure linking the two cerebral hemispheres of the brain (corpus callosum) fails to develop. The absence of the corpus callosum is associated with frequent seizures, marked abnormalities of the retina and choroid (the thin membrane that covers the retina) of the eyes, and/or mental retardation.

Characteristic malformation syndrome which appear in females only (males - intrauterine death), with progrediating psychomotor deterioration. Infantile spasms, which may become manifest between 1 day and 4 months of age, epileptic attacks; typical bowing of the head (salaam seizures), agenesis of the corpus callosum, costovertebral anomalies, mental abnormalities, and hypotonia. Ocular changes include microphthalmia, eyelid twitching, absent pupillary reflexes, and funnel-shaped disks. Etiology unknown. Current theories include congenital infection, an X-linked genetic defect, and an intrauterine environmental agent. Poor prognosis.

No information found here must under any circumstances be used for medical purposes, diagnostically, therapeutically or otherwise. If you, or anybody close to you, is affected, or believe to be affected, by any condition mentioned here: see a doctor. Jean François Marie Aicardi studied at the Paris Medical School and became an Interne des Hôpitaux de Paris in 1951. During his internship he took a keen interest in neurology at the Hôpital de la Salpêtrière under Raymond Garcin (1897-1971), and in child neurology at the Hôpital des Enfants Malades in Paris under Stéphane Thieffry, who was the first paediatrician in France to dedicate himself entirely to child neurology. In the early 1950s, Aicardi was preparing his thesis on convulsive disorders in the first year of life and was impressed and fascinated by the works of Henri Jean Pascal Gastaut (1915-1995). He received his doctorate from the University of Paris in 1955. Aicardi spent the years 1955-1956 as a research fellow at the Harvard Medical School and the Children's Hospital Medical Center in Boston. Here he had the opportunity to increase his knowledge of child neurology, and to discover the dynamic and rigorous style of American research, a process that he adopted for his own.
