Imaging aspects of the racemose neurocysticercosis. [PDF]

Arch Med Sci, 2015
Neurocysticercosis (NCC) is the most common parasitic infection of the central nervous system (CNS) [1, 2]. It is estimated that approximately 50 million people are infected with NCC in developing countries, and this disease is considered endemic in Latin America, Asia and Africa [1].

Establishment of a consensus protocol to explore the brain pathobiome in patients with mild cognitive impairment and Alzheimer's disease

Alzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 19, Issue 11, Page 5209-5231, November 2023., 2023
Abstract Microbial infections of the brain can lead to dementia, and for many decades microbial infections have been implicated in Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology. However, a causal role for infection in AD remains contentious, and the lack of standardized detection methodologies has led to inconsistent detection/identification of microbes in AD ...

Neurocysticercosis and epilepsy: Imaging and clinical characteristics

Epileptic Disorders, Volume 25, Issue 1, Page 94-103, February 2023., 2023
Abstract The ILAE Neuroimaging Task Force aimed to publish educational case reports highlighting basic aspects related to neuroimaging in epilepsy consistent with the educational mission of the ILAE. Neurocysticercosis (NCC) is highly endemic in resource‐limited countries and increasingly more often seen in non‐endemic regions due to migration.

Neurocysticercosis and HIV/AIDS co‐infection: A scoping review

Tropical Medicine &International Health, Volume 26, Issue 10, Page 1140-1152, October 2021., 2021
Abstract Objectives Neurocysticercosis (NCC) and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) have a high disease burden and are prevalent in overlapping low‐ and middle‐income areas. Yet, treatment guidance for people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWH/A) co‐infected with NCC is currently lacking. This study aims to scope the available literature on HIV/AIDS and NCC co‐

A rare case of racemose neurocysticercosis of the posterior fossa. [PDF]

BMJ Case Rep, 2014
A 43-year-old man presented with a 3 month history of headache, vertigo and swaying while walking. MRI of the brain showed cystic lesions involving the cerebellopontine angle cisterns, the right perimedullary cistern, the fourth ventricle and bilateral foramen of Luschka with resultant obstruction to cerebrospinal fluid outflow and hydrocephalus.

Racemose neurocysticercosis

, 2005
Cysticercosis, a parasitic infection caused by the larvae of Taenia solium, is becoming more prevalent in industrialized countries, because of the increased number of immigrants from areas in which infection with Taenia is endemic.
