Agenesis of the corpus callosum is a rare congenital defect that has been linked to psychiatric disorders, cognitive deficits, learning disabilities, and developmental delays. We present the case of a patient with partial agenesis of the corpus callosum who exhibits depressed mood, transient loss of memory, and history of cognitive, social, and behavioral disturbances that developed during his childhood. Recent and pertinent literature was reviewed and the agenesis of the corpus callosum and its associated neuropsychiatric manifestations are discussed.

Introduction. Fahr?s syndrome is a rare, slowly progressive, neurodegenerative disorder, characterised by extensive, bilateral, and symmetrical basal ganglia calcification. It is associated with neuropsychiatric manifestations and gradually progressive cognitive impairment. Fahr's syndrome is the secondary form of brain calcification that is caused by various metabolic, infectious, or degenerative diseases. Case report. We presented a middle-aged male with Fahr's syndrome due to primary idiopathic hypoparathyroidism. Clinical diagnosis was based on signs and symptoms of hypocalcemia, progressive neuropsychiatric illnesses, laboratory evidence of hypoparathyroidism, and radiological signs of calcifications in the basal ganglia. The patient improved after only a few days of intravenous rehydration and calcium substitution, followed by oral supplemental calcitriol. Conclusion. Timely recognition of idiopathic and iatrogenic hypoparathyroidism allows appropriate treatment that can prevent the development and clinical manifestations of Fahr?s syndrome and potentially slow its progression.

Sjögren‘S Syndrome

Neuropsychiatric manifestations in Sjögren’s syndrome are common and can occur not only during its course, but also at the onset of the disease. Depression and anxiety were the most frequently described symptoms. However, the association with bipolar disorder seems to be rare and not well documented. This case report presents a patient with bipolar disorder as comorbidity with Sjögren’s syndrome, suggesting that bipolar disorder could be associated with this autoimmune disease, which could lead to delaying diagnosis and treatment. A better analysis of the clinical background should be done by psychiatrists so to help early diagnosis and adapting prescription. Corticosteroids indicated in Sjögren’s syndrome should be prescribed with caution in bipolar disorder.

Psychiatric Manifestations

Abstract While the respiratory complications of COVID-19 infection are now well known, psychiatric manifestations are an emerging issue. We report a case of prolonged encephalopathy secondary to COVID-19 which was associated with prominent neuropsychiatric features. The patient went on to develop sub-clinical seizures, a rare but recognised complication of SARS-CoV-2.
