In ten patients (Group B) a CT guided stereotaxic biopsy of the lesion was carried out and in the remainder (15-Group C) and excision biopsy of th...

متن کاملThe syndrome of seizures in association with single small enhancing CT lesions (SSELs)
Neurocysticercosis is an important cause of seizures in developing countries. Most patients with neurocysticercosis have multiple intra-cranial cystic or calcified lesions. The syndrome of seizures in association with single, small enhancing CT/MRI lesions (SSELs) accounts for about 10% of epilepsy patients seen at major neurological centres in India. The clinical features of this syndrome and ...
