Subcutaneous and intramuscular cysticercosis: high-resolution sonography.
Sir, We read the article Subcutaneous nodules preceding convulsions due to neural cysticercosis by Singrodia et al.[1] They had rightly pointed out that the prerequisite for successful treatment of cysticercosis with anthelminthics is early diagnosis; however, they did excisional biopsy for the diagnosis. Here, we want to draw the kind attention to a very important non-invasive diagnostic tec...
متن کاملCysticercosis of soft tissue.
Cysticercosis is a systemic illness caused by dissemination of the larval form of the pork tapeworm, Taenia solium. A high prevalence has been reported from the developing countries because of the co-existence of poor sanitary conditions and domestic pig raising. Human cysticercosis occurs when eggs are ingested via faecal-oral transmission from a tapeworm host. The human then becomes an accide...
متن کاملIsolated intramuscular cysticercosis: a case report.
Human cysticercosis is caused by Cysticercus cellulosae, larvae of a tapeworm, Taenia solium. Cysticercosis can involve any tissue in the body; the most common affected sites are central nervous system, subcutaneous tissue, eyes, and muscles. A few cases of isolated intramuscular cysticercosis without any other tissue involvement have been reported in pediatric population. Here, we report a cas...
متن کاملHigh-resolution ultrasonography in an aggressive thenar intramuscular lipoma.
ipomas are seen mainly during mid adulthood and represent the most common benign soft tissue tumors of this age group. Subcutaneous, most often asymptomatic, soft mobile masses are by far the most frequent manifestation and are known to arise typically from superficial areas of the trunk and proximal extremities. Conversely, deep-seated lipomas, such as the intramuscular lipoma, are relatively ...
متن کاملIsolated Forearm Swelling - A Rare Presentation of Soft Tissue Cysticercosis
Cysticercosis is a common human infestation in the developing world. Neurocysticercosis is the most common clinical presentation of cysticercal infestation in the human body, but it may be rarely encountered in other body parts like skeletal muscle, subcutaneous tissue and eye. We report this case of an uncommon clinical presentation of soft tissue cysticercosis as an isolated forearm swelling....
