Neurocysticercosis clinical manifestations and treatment
C
ysticercosis is one of the most common parasitic diseases
of the nervous system in humans, and constitutes a major
public health problem for most of the developing world. The
clinical manifestations of Neurocysticercosis (NCC) largely
depend on the host immune response against the parasite. NCC
diagnosis is based upon neuroimaging studies (Computerized
Tomography, Magnetic Resonance Imaging) and antibody/
antigen detection in the serum and the cerebrospinal fluid.
Anticysticercal therapy has been marked by an intense
controversy.
