Coming soonNeurocysticercosis is a central nervous system infection caused by the larval stage (cysticerci) of the pork tapeworm, *Taenia solium*, following the ingestion of microscopic tapeworm eggs.
It primarily affects the brain parenchyma, subarachnoid spaces, ventricular system, and spinal cord, representing a leading cause of preventable acquired epilepsy worldwide.
Pathophysiologically, the encysted larvae evade host defenses until degenerating, at which point surrounding inflammation, cerebral edema, or calcification frequently triggers new-onset seizures, chronic headaches, focal neurological deficits, and signs of elevated intracranial pressure or hydrocephalus.
