Title: [Neurocysticercosis]. Author: Tscherpel C, Gottschalk A, Meyding-Lamadé U, Fink GR, Burghaus L. Journal: Fortschr Neurol Psychiatr; 2015 Aug; 83(8):451-5. PubMed ID: 26327477. Abstract: Neurocysticercosis is a leading cause of acquired epilepsy worldwide and endemic in underdeveloped and developing regions. As a result of increased migration and traveling, cases of neurocysticercosis reach Europe more frequently. Neurological symptoms are multifarious and often nonspecific, so that neurocysticercosis poses a diagnostic challenge. We report a case of a patient in whom the diagnosis of neurocysticercosis was achieved quickly via the patient's history, neuroimaging and serology.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
