A case of cysticercosis involving only the sternocleidomastoid muscle of an otherwise-healthy pregnant woman is presented. An enzyme-linked immunoelectrotransfer blot assay for cysticercosis was nonreactive. The clinical features of extraneural cysticercosis are reviewed with special attention to musculocutaneous involvement. The results of serological tests for such patients may not be positive and histopathology remains the only reliable method for confirming the diagnosis of cysticercosis.
本文报告了一例仅累及一名健康孕妇胸锁乳突肌的囊尾蚴病病例。囊尾蚴病的酶联免疫电转移印迹试验呈阴性。本文回顾了神经外囊尾蚴病的临床特征,特别关注肌肉皮肤受累情况。此类患者的血清学检测结果可能为阴性,组织病理学仍然是确诊囊尾蚴病的唯一可靠方法。
