Abstract

The human corpus callosum was investigated with regard to sexual dimorphism by means of morphometry. At the macroscopical level, no part of the corpus callosum showed significant differences between the sexes. The concept that sex-related functional hemispherical discrepancies are correlated with the gross anatomy of the human corpus callosum was not confirmed.
