[Cysticercosis in the Czech Republic].
The authors report 10 cases of cysticercosis registered by the National Reference Laboratory for tissue helminthiasis. Six Czech citizens and four foreigners contracted the disease. Four of 6 Czech citizens were contaminated abroad. Six patients suffered from nervous manifestations of cysticercosis, 2 from muscular or subcutaneous cysticercosis and 2 patients had an asymptomatic course of the infection. The prerequisite of successful treatment with new anthelmintics is early diagnostics.
