Aicardi syndrome, exclusively occurring female patient, was originally characterized by triad: agenesis of the corpus callosum, distinctive chorioretinal lacunae, and infantile spasms. Besides the triad, several other findings are present in patients with this condition.

Triad was seen: infantile spasm with abnormal EEG, agenesis of corpus callosum revealed by MRI, and chorioretinal lacunae of the posterior pole. We diagnosed this condition as Aicardi syndrome.

We summarized the clinical characteristics of this syndrome based on the literature survey.
