    Author: Berche M, Hayot B, Mokrane M, Najjar G, Bouzas E.
    Journal: Ophtalmologie; 1990; 4(4):377-9. PubMed ID: 2263392.
    Abstract:
    We report two personal cases of intra ocular cysticercosis typical by their sub retinal and intra vitreous localization. After a short review of epidemiology and biological diagnostic we propose a treatment which associates a medical part with Praziquantel, killing the larva and a surgical part with pars plana vitrectomy allowing the control of the inflammation, contemporary of the larva's death and the intra-vitreous cysticercosis extraction.
