Background: Simultaneous central nervous system infection by more than one pathogen is very uncommon, even in individuals with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. Purpose and methods: We report a clinical case of an H...
BACKGROUND The clinical symptoms and imaging manifestations of neurocysticercosis(NCC)are very different,and the difficulty and delay of clinical diagnoses may lead to an increase in mortality and disability.Rapid and...
Rationale:Neurocysticercosis is a neglected tropical disease caused by the larvae of Taenia solium and may occur in immunocompetent people.We report a case of diffuse parenchymal neurocysticercosis mimicking tuberculo...

Summary What is already known about this topic?Neurocysticercosis is the most severe form of infection caused by ingesting cysticerci,the larval cysts of the pork tapeworm,Taenia solium.Approximately 50 million people...
Neurocysticercosis is the most common neuro-parasitosis caused by the larval stage of Taenia solium.The most common manifestations include seizures and hydrocephalus.Psychiatric abnormalities are relatively rare but d...

Parenchymal neurocysticercosis is the most common form of neurocysticercosis in the central nervous system(CNS),which mainly causes epilepsy and usually responses well to routine medications.However,there are apprecia...
Rationale: Disseminated cysticercosis is characterized by presence of cysts in multiple body organs, like brain, skin, eyes, muscles and rarely heart and lungs.Patient concerns: A 22-year-old man presented with bilate...
Cysticercosis is a frequent parasitic infection of the nervous system that occurs when humans become intermediate hosts of the pork tapeworm Taenia solium (T. solium), after ingesting its eggs. The disease is usually ...
Taenia solium cysticercosis is an emerging food borne parasitic zoonosis in urban centres where infected pigs from rural areas are slaughtered and consumed. The public is at risk of acquiring the infection if meat ins...
Seizures due to neurocysticercosis(NCC) is a neglected human-to-human transmitted disorder and an emerging problem worldwide.A substantial portion of recent onset seizures is known to be attributed to NCC in Taenia so...
