Fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) has emerged as simple, minimally invasive, low-cost, outpatient diagnostic modality for the evaluation of nodules caused by parasites. Cysticercosis is caused by larval stage of , pork tapeworm. It is endemic in Southeast Asia, Latin America and South Africa. We report a case of cysticercosis in a 25-year-old male who presented with painless swelling of submandibular gland which was diagnosed on FNAC. The patient was recommended antihelminthic therapy which resulted in complete resolution of the swelling.
细针穿刺细胞学检查（FNAC）已成为一种简单、微创、低成本的门诊诊断方法，用于评估由寄生虫引起的结节。囊尾蚴病是由猪肉绦虫的幼虫阶段引起的。它在东南亚、拉丁美洲和南非流行。我们报告一例25岁男性囊尾蚴病病例，该患者表现为下颌下腺无痛性肿胀，通过细针穿刺细胞学检查得以确诊。建议该患者进行抗蠕虫治疗，肿胀完全消退。
