Neurocysticercosis is endemic in most countries of Central and South America but has rarely been described in the French West Indies. We aimed to better understand the clinical and radiological presentation of our cases.
We report three cases of neurocysticercosis in patients living in Guadeloupe, with different clinical and radiological presentations.
Given the eventuality of autochtonous transmission, the diagnosis should be considered in all patients living in Guadeloupe presenting with seizures.
神经囊尾蚴病在中美洲和南美洲的大多数国家为地方病,但在法属西印度群岛鲜有报道。我们旨在更好地了解我们病例的临床和影像学表现。
我们报告了3例居住在瓜德罗普岛的神经囊尾蚴病患者,其临床和影像学表现各异。
鉴于存在本地传播的可能性,对于所有居住在瓜德罗普岛且有癫痫发作的患者均应考虑进行该诊断。
