The corpus callosum (latin term "tough body"), consisting of more than 200 million myelinated nerve fibers, is the brain's largest white matter structure. It is a bundle of nerve fibers that connects and allows communication between the two hemispheres to perform various motor and cognitive functions (Kendra Cherry, 2023). The dense composition of the white matter tracts in relation to surrounding hemispheric white matter creates a barrier to disseminating various common pathological processes (Eric C. Bourekas, 2002).
