title: [Neurosurgical observations of central nervous system parasitic diseases].
abstract: Two main diseases are met, though seldom, in France (mostly in African patients): 1) hydatic cyst, the outcome of which is good after ablation; 2) multiple cysticercosis, often fatal. Furthermore two very rare cases are reported, one is a cerebral cryptococcosis, the other is an extra-dural spinal filariosis.
