Microcephaly-polymicrogyria-corpus callosum agenesis syndrome is a rare, genetic, central nervous system malformation syndrome characterized by marked prenatal-onset microcephaly, severe motor delay with hypotonia, bilateral polymicrogyria, corpus callosum agenesis, ventricular dilation, small cerebellum and early lethality.
Features include common findings: Agenesis of corpus callosum, Cerebellar hypoplasia, Respiratory distress, and Enlarged brain ventricles (ventriculomegaly) and others.
