Infection with the pork tapeworm (Taenia solium) is responsible for a substantial global burden of disease, not only restricted to its impact on human health, but also resulting in a considerable economic burden to smallholder pig farmers due to pig ...

Cysticercosis in ophthalmology.
Survey of ophthalmology, 2021Cysticercosis is caused by Taenia solium, a cestode or tapeworm that preferentially affects the subcutaneous tissue, brain, muscle, and the eye. It is traditionally a disease of low socioeconomic regions, but large-scale population migration has made it ...

Could Differences in Infection Pressure Be Involved in Cysticercosis Heterogeneity?
Trends in Parasitology, 2020The presentation of cysticercosis is very heterogeneous both between and within countries. Several host and parasite factors are involved in this heterogeneity. Differences in the intensity of infection pressure have not been studied thus far.

Control of taeniasis and cysticercosis in China.
Advances in Parasitology, 2020National surveys suggest that the prevalence of taeniasis has considerably decreased in China, while reported cases indicated T. solium cysticercosis was historically highly endemic in northeastern, central and southwestern China.

Intraventricular cysticercosis
Neurosurgery, 1983Abstract The authors review their experience with 21 cases of intraventricular cysticercosis, which corresponded to 28% of all cases of neurocysticercosis in their department during an 18-month period. The surgical approach depends on the cyst's location; one uses the transcortical microsurgical approach to reach the lateral ventricles ...

Pediatrics, 1979
A case of cerebral cysticercosis in an American child is described. The patient was only 2 years old and had never left the United States. Her symptoms began with febrile seizures and progressed to focal motor seizures. Cerebrospinal fuid pleocytosis with eosinophilia, candle-guttering of the walls of the ventricles on pneumoencephalography, and a ...

Southern Medical Journal, 1975
Cerebral cysticercosis is a neurologic disease with myriad manifestations. Three basic types of infections occur: localized, widespread, and proliferative inflammatory reaction. A case is reported illustrating the first type of infection and one type of clinical presentation,--focal seizures.

Two intravitreal Taenia cysts were removed intact by pars plana vitrectomy from a 59-year-old woman who had never left the continental United States. The intraocular course of the cysts progressed from an initial chorioretinal location, accompanied by an intense focal inflammatory reaction, to free floating in the vitreous cavity within two months ...

Abstract Background: We report on a case of orbital cysticercosis in a 27‐year‐old Burmese man who presented with an orbital swelling 7 months after arriving in Australia. Methods: The presenting history and findings are reviewed and treatment options are discussed. A brief review of the life cycle of the tapeworm Taenia solium is provided.

American Journal of Ophthalmology, 1985
We observed and photographed intraocular cysticercosis in a 50-year-old woman. The subretinal cysticercus in the macular area produced a macular break during its passage from the subretinal space into the vitreous cavity. The parasite was removed by closed vitrectomy, but the macular break was left untreated because there was no vitreous traction to ...
