Comprehensive management of neurocysticercosis: A case report
Authors

Abstract
Neurocysticercosis, a
frequent parasitic disease of the central nervous system, is a result of Taenia
solium infection. Typically, it manifests with seizures, headaches, worsening
focal neurologic symptoms, visual disturbances, loss of bladder control, etc.
CT scans play a crucial role in diagnosing parenchymal neurocysticercosis due
to their high sensitivity and specificity. Using albendazole (ALB) and praziquantel
(PZQ) together was found to be more effective in treating anthelmintic drugs
(AHD) compared to administering each drug individually. In this case,
conservative therapy was used for treating parenchymal neurocysticercosis, with
physiotherapy helping to achieve gradual clinical enhancement.
