520			_aAicardi syndrome was first identified by Jean Aicardi. It is a rare genetic disorder. It is characterized by infantile spasms. Corpus Callosum Agenesis is the most prominent neurological symptom seen in this syndrome. Children affected by the syndrome are assumed to exhibit developmental delay. A 9-year-old female accompanied by her parents reported to a premiere speech and hearing institute. The client had seizures since she was 3 months old. CT of the brain revealed agenesis of corpus callosum. Speech and language evaluation revealed that the client had a massive delay in her receptive and expressive skills. Speech and language therapy was carried out for 15 sessions improvement was minimal. The minimal improvement can be attributed to the age at which therapy was started.
