title: [Isolated involvement of the central nervous system in cysticercosis. Anatomo-clinical study of a case].
abstract: We observed one case of neurocysticercosis due to Taenia Solium. The patient had stayed at the Green Cap Islands and in Portugal until 1987, when he arrived in France and died one month later. The diagnosis had been suspected from the results of computerized tomography and serological examination. Finally, we confirmed that diagnosis by the post mortem parasitology study of the specimen of brain.
