Pig production has increased significantly in the Eastern and Southern Africa (ESA) region during the past decade, especially in rural, resource-poor, smallholder communities. Concurrent with the increase in smallholder pig keeping and pork consumption, there have been increasing reports of porcine cysticercosis in the ESA region. This article reviews the findings concerning the presence and im...
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE In 1985 we initiated a protocol for examining the relationship between cerebral cysticercosis and stroke. METHODS In 420 stroke patients admitted to our department, our standard protocol of tests included blood tests, cardiac investigations, angiography, and immunologic cerebrospinal fluid measures. We assessed the following possible risk factors: arterial hypertension,...
Cysticercosis is a systemic parasitic disease caused by the larval form of Taenia solium. Cysticercus can be found in any part of the body including the subcutaneous tissues, skeletal muscles, eye, heart, liver, lungs, and peritoneum. Solitary cysticercosis of the parotid gland is rare entity and only few cases have been reported in English literature.[1-3] We report a case of cysticercosis wit...
Cysticercosis is a condition that occurs when man is infested by the larvae of Taenia solium, acting as an intermediate host instead of definitive. Oral cysticercosis is a rare event, and it represents a difficulty in clinical diagnosis. A case of oral cysticercosis in a 23-year-old white female who presented a painless swelling in the dorsal portion of the tongue is reported. An excisional bio...
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...
Although many computed tomographic (CT) features of cysticercosis cerebri have been described [1 -5], the recognition of ventricular cysticercosis cysts on plain CT scans is stili generally difficult or impossible . Recently, we observed entrance of metrizamide into a ventricular cysticercosis cyst after ventriculography. This new feature may be specific for intraventricular cyst icercosis cyst...
BACKGROUND Taenia solium, a zoonotic infection transmitted between humans and pigs, is considered an emerging infection in Sub-Saharan Africa, yet individual and community-level factors associated with the human infection with the larval stages (cysticercosis) are not well understood. This study aims to estimate the magnitude of association of individual-level and village-level factors with cur...
Human cysticercosis is a disease caused by larvae of the cestode Taenia solium. It an important common cause adult-onset seizures world-wide where it exacts debilitating toll on health and well-being affected communities. commonly assumed that major symptoms associated with are result direct presence in brain. As result, possible effects peripherally located central nervous system not well unde...
Cysticercosis is the commonest parasitic infection of the central nervous system (CNS) [ 11. According to the areas of involvement it can be classified as: (a) meningobasal, (b) mixed, (c) parenchymal, (d) intraventricular, and (e) intraspinal [2]. Isolated primary intraspinal cysticercosis is a very rare manifestation of this usually multifocal parasitic disease. We are reporting a case of cys...
background: parasite proteases have important roles in cleavage of host proteins during the invasion of host tissues and participate in the parasite’s evasion from the host’s immune response. the aim of the present study was to estimate a metalloproteinase properties of taenia solium metacestode (tsmp) during host-parasite interactions, and evaluate its potential as a serodiagnostic antigen for...
