Cysticercosis of the superior oblique muscle.

A M Brooks, W B Essex, R H West.   

Abstract

A 39-year-old Vietnamese refugee with upper eyelid swelling followed by vertical diplopia and mild proptosis was shown by computerised tomography to have a localised lesion in the region of the right superior oblique muscle. At operation, this was a cyst and histology confirmed the larval form of Taenia solium (cysticercosis).
