Abstract
We present a newborn infant with the asplenia syndrome and unique associated features of corpus callosum agenesis, anophthalmia and coloboma. Previous reports of eye abnormalities or corpus callosum agenesis in patients with asplenia suggest that this may represent a distinct clinically recognisable entity of abnormal lateralisation.
