Context: Several texts and literature suggest that corpus callosum may be sexually dimorphic. Previous researchers found that the length of the corpus callosum is larger in males than in females. Reviewing various foreign literature found that the length of the corpus callosum may change in many diseases in Neurology, Neurosurgery, and Psychiatry. So, knowledge of the normal morphological difference of the length of corpus callosum between Bangladeshi males and females is essential for the diagnosis in brain imaging and treatment of those diseases. Objective: The present study was conducted to provide data on the length of the corpus callosum of our people, which can be used to set a standard measurement for the Bangladeshi population. Materials and methods: A cross-sectional, descriptive study was done in the Department of Anatomy, Dhaka Medical College, Dhaka, Bangladesh, from July 2009 to June 2010, based on the collection of 60 human brains (male 36 and female 24) from unclaimed dead bodies. The lengths were measured by using digital slide calipers in mm.Results: The mean length of the corpus callosum in males and females in groups A, B, C & D (grouping in done on age difference) were 68.04 ± 0.99 and 67.03 ± 0.05 mm, 67.50 ± 0.13 and 67.02 ± 0.03 mm and 67.51 ± 0.03 and 67.02 ± 0.03 mm respectively.Conclusion: Statistically significant differences were found between males and females in all age groups in the length of the corpus callosum.
