Albendazole therapy for subarachnoid and ventricular cysticercosis. Case report.

O H del Brutto1, J Sotelo.   

Abstract

Medical or surgical therapy for subarachnoid or ventricular cysticercosis is a controversial issue. The authors report a patient with cysticercus larvae in both ventricular and subarachnoid locations, who was successfully treated with albendazole. Thus, medical therapy has a role in the treatment of these forms of neurocysticercosis.
