  • Title: [Cerebral cysticercosis. A report on the treatment with praziquantel].
    Author: Meyer-Wahl JG, Maier-Metz F.
    Journal: Fortschr Med; 1984 Mar 29; 102(12):336-9. PubMed ID: 6714907.
    Abstract:
    In the course of cerebral cysticercosis our patient suffered from severe headaches due to cerebral pressure raise and focal seizures. Diagnosis was assessed by computed tomography only. Serological confirmation followed later. By treatment with praziquantel there was an essential improvement of seizure frequency and headaches. A CT-control after treatment showed a reduction of cyst volume. These findings are discussed as to their clinical significance.
