H. pylori antigen detection in stool.

We describe a case of ocular (subconjunctival) cysticercosis in a eighteen years old, vegetarian male, who presented to the ophthalmology OPD with complaints of increasing painless conjunctival swelling of left eye since four months associated with redness, restriction of gaze and diplopia. The patient had a history of similar swelling in tongue three months back, which extruded spontaneously. The cystic swelling was excised in toto and the conjunctival defect was sutured. The patient was prescribed albendazole (15mg./ kg) for three weeks. The cyst was 7mm x 5mm, white, translucent (live) and had a dense white spot which showed presence of a single scolex (Figure).
