Cysticercosis, a parasitic disease caused by larval form of Taenia solium, is a major health concern in the developing world. The encysted larval stage can affect any part of the body, but are most frequently detected in brain, eye, skeletal muscle and subcutaneous tissue. Most muscular cysticercosis are almost always associated with central nervous system involvement or with multiple intramuscular cysts or both. Here we report an unusual case of cysticercosis in right rectus muscle which was an isolated muscle involvement without any other systemic manifestation.
囊尾蚴病是由猪带绦虫幼虫引起的一种寄生虫病,是发展中世界主要的健康问题。囊尾蚴阶段可累及身体的任何部位,但最常出现在脑、眼、骨骼肌和皮下组织中。大多数肌肉囊尾蚴病几乎总是与中枢神经系统受累或多个肌内囊肿或两者都有关。在此,我们报告一例罕见的右侧直肌囊尾蚴病病例,该病例为孤立的肌肉受累,无任何其他全身表现。
