Intermittent perilesional edema and contrast enhancement in epilepsy with calcified neurocysticercosis may help to identify the seizure focus
Neurocysticercosis is a frequent cause of seizures in endemic countries. It is caused by the larvae of the tapeworm Taenia solium. The larvae once hosted in the cerebral parenchyma evolve into viable cysts, called the vesicular stage (with little or no inflammatory reaction), and may remain at this...
