Orbital cysticercosis: diagnosis and treatment controversies.

Ana Rita Sandes1, Ana Mouzinho, Paula Valente.   

Abstract

Orbital cysticercosis is a rare condition and its management is controversial. We report 2 cases of orbital cellulitis associated with cysticercosis in which the treatment with antihelminthics was withheld. The 2 children had good evolution with spontaneous progressive resolution. The current literature is reviewed.
