Identification of abnormal patterns of evolution of neurocysticercosis cysts and what they might indicate

2025-07-14

Abstract excerpt

Few studies have described unexpected patterns of cyst evolution for neurocysticercosis (NCC), an infection of the central nervous system with the larval stage of the pork tapeworm, Taenia solium . We used data from a randomized controlled trial on albendazole treatment, conducted in Ecuador and including 178 NCC patients who had imaging at months one, six, 12, and 24 to examine unexpected patterns of NCC cyst evo...
