How does Aicardi syndrome affect the body?

How does Aicardi syndrome affect the body?

The condition has three common issues:

• Agenesis of the corpus callosum: Abnormalities in the structure connecting the brain’s left and right sides.
• Eye issues: Holes in the back of the eye (coloboma) or patches of clear tissue (choroidal lacunae).
• Seizures: Difficult-to-treat episodes of irregular electrical activity in the brain.

It’s possible to have Aicardi syndrome and not have all three issues. Many children experience additional symptoms and delays.
