    Journal: Parkinsonism Relat Disord; 2005 Jan; 11(1):69-72. PubMed ID: 15619466.
    Abstract:
    We report two cases of brainstem cysticercotic ependymitis presenting with rigid-akinetic syndrome. There was a good response to levodopa therapy as well as cysticidal therapy with albendazole, allowing later reduction of levodopa dosage in one patient and complete withdrawal in the other.
