 ====== Aicardi syndrome ======
-{{page>template:todo}}
 A rare neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by the classic triad of agenesis of the corpus callosum (total or partial), central chorioretinal lacunae and infantile spasms that affects almost exclusively females & rarely in 47 XXY males. However Aicardi syndrome is now recognized as a more complex, pleiotropic disorder with an expanded spectrum of phenotypical features.

 ==== Genetics ====
   * Nearly all reported cases of Aicardi syndrome are sporadic and in females and believed to result from new gene mutations
-  * Aicardi syndrome is classified as an X-linked dominant condition[{{ :content:xlinkdominant.jpeg?300|Credit:U.S National Library of Medicine}}.

-In 1965 French pediatric neurologist and epileptologist [[https://icnapedia.org/news/professor-jean-aicardi-1926-2015|Jean Aicardi]] described 8 children with infantile spasm-in-flexion, total or partial agenesis of the corpus callosum, and variable ocular abnormalities[(:cite:aicardi>Aicardi J, Lefebvre J, Lerique-Koechlin A. A new syndrome: spasms in flexion, callosal agenesis, ocular abnormalities. Electroencephalogr Clin Neurophysiol 1965;19:609-610)]. Further 7 patients were described in 1969[(:cite:4314028>{{pubmed>long:4314028}})] and the name "Aicardi syndrome" was established in 1972, by Dennis and Bower[(:cite:4624502>{{pubmed>long:4624502}})].
