Uniocular ptosis due to cysticercosis of extraocular muscle.

Raman Kundra1, S N Kundra.   

Abstract

Involvement of extraocular muscle by Cysticercus cellulosae is very rare. Rarer still is the isolated involvement of the levator palpebrae superioris muscle presenting clinically as ptosis. We report here such a presentation in an eleven years old girl.
