Abstract

A severe case of dementia associated with a parenchymous miliar neurocysticercosis in a 15-year-old girl is described. Although there was general cerebral involvement, EEG, neurological and neuropsychological examinations showed a marked decrease in right hemisphere activity. Treatment with Praziquantel reduced the patient's intellectual deterioration, but hydrocephalus developed.

摘要

本文描述了一名15岁女孩患有严重痴呆症，伴有实质性粟粒性神经囊尾蚴病。尽管整个大脑均有受累，但脑电图、神经学和神经心理学检查显示右半球活动明显减少。吡喹酮治疗减缓了患者智力衰退，但出现了脑积水。
