  • Title: Pars plana vitrectomy for removal of intravitreous Cysticercus.
    Author: Hutton WL, Vaiser A, Snyder WB.
    Journal: Am J Ophthalmol; 1976 May; 81(5):571-3. PubMed ID: 1275034.
    Abstract:
    Pars plana was used for the removal of an intravitreous cysticercus, with minimal postoperative inflammation and an excellent visual result. This approach avoids lens removal and the visualization provided by the operating microscope allows removal of all vitreous humor particles and debris. The aspirated specimens allowed identification of the Taenia solium cysticercus.
