Neurocysticercosis among resettled refugees from Burma.

Seth E O'Neal1, Nathaniel M Robbins, John M Townes.   

Abstract

Taenia solium is the most common helminthic infection of the central nervous system and a leading cause of epilepsy in developing nations. Little is known about neurocysticercosis in refugees from Southeast Asia which is endemic for T solium. We present two cases in a single household of refugees from Burma.
