Clinical and radiographic response of fourth ventricle cysticercosis to praziquantel therapy.

J Fandiño1, C Botana, C Fandiño, D Rodriguez, J Gomez-Bueno.   

Abstract

A case of fourth ventricle cysticercosis treated with praziquantel is presented. The disappearance of the lesion six months after the treatment was demonstrated by CT scan. A review of the literature indicates that this is a very exceptional result, because with recently intraventricular cysticercosis was considered to be non-responsive to praziquantel treatment, making surgery necessary.
