OBJECTIVE: To describe the absence of the arcuate fasciculi in 2 cases of congenital bilateral perisylvian syndrome (CBPS).
DESIGN: Case series.
SETTING: Pediatric referral hospital-based study.
PATIENTS: Two patients with CBPS, referred to our institution as candidates for surgical treatment of epilepsy. Intervention Diffusion tensor imaging (1.5-T scanner; 15 encoding directions; b = 800 s/mm(2)) and deterministic tractography of the main projection and association tracts.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Neuropsychology evaluation; fractional anisotropy, apparent diffusion coefficients, and anatomical aspect of the tracts.
RESULTS: Absence of the arcuate fasciculus was observed in both subjects. Ancillary findings were complete absence of the superior longitudinal fasciculi in 1 case and underdevelopment in the other. Low fractional anisotropy of the left inferior occipitofrontal fasciculus was found in both cases. The same tract was maloriented in 1 of the cases.
CONCLUSION: Agenesis of the arcuate fasciculus may accompany CBPS.
