A case of neurocysticercosis in entire spinal level.

Byung Chan Lim1, Rae Seop Lee, Jun Seop Lim, Kyu Yong Cho.   

Abstract

Cysticercosis is the most common parasitic infection affecting the central nervous system. Spinal neurocysticercosis (NCC) is very rare compared with intracranial NCC and requires more aggressive management because these lesions are poorly tolerated. The authors report a case of intradural extramedullary cysticercosis of the entire level of spine with review of the literature.
