Parasitic infections of the central nervous system (CNS) occur mostly in underdeveloped regions of the world. Neurocysticercosis (NC) occurs when the larval form of the T. solium tapeworm invades the CNS. Spinal cysticercosis is an extremely rare type of NC and occurs when the cyst occupies the subarachnoid space of the spinal column. Previous cases have been successfully treated through both surgical and medical means. The current case describes the symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment of a patient with this extremely uncommon manifestation of neurocysticercosis.
中枢神经系统（CNS）寄生虫感染大多发生在世界上的欠发达地区。当猪带绦虫的幼虫形式侵入中枢神经系统时，就会发生神经囊尾蚴病（NC）。脊髓囊尾蚴病是神经囊尾蚴病中一种极其罕见的类型，当囊肿占据脊柱的蛛网膜下腔时就会发生。先前的病例已通过手术和药物治疗成功治愈。本病例描述了一名患有这种极其罕见的神经囊尾蚴病表现患者的症状、诊断和治疗情况。
