  • Title: Japanese B encephalitis with neurocysticercosis.
    Author: Das SK, Nityanand S, Sood K, Agarwal A, Kapoor R, Pant MC, Singh BN.
    Journal: J Assoc Physicians India; 1991 Aug; 39(8):643-4. PubMed ID: 1667655.
    Abstract:
    A case of Japanese encephalitis (JE) with multiple calcified lesions suggestive of calcified neurocysticercosis on CT scan of the head is reported. The presence of nonenhancing calcified lesions and rising antibody titres for JE differentiated it from acute encephalitis neurocysticercosis. Post mortem studies indicate that neurocysticercosis predisposes to fatal JE infection. The present report is of an association of the two diseases which did not result in a fatal outcome.
