Özet
The syndrome of megalencephaly, mega corpus callosum (MEG-MegaCC) accompanied by complete lack of motor development is a rare condition with only few sporadic cases having been reported in the literature. In this paper, we describe a child from non-consanguineous parents presenting with MegaCC, psychomotor retardation, and language impairment linked to MEG-MegaCC syndrome. Genetic analysis, radiological findings, and detailed neurological phenotype of MEG-MegaCC syndrome with its overlapping syndromes would allow for a better classification of the disease spectrum.
