We report a case of pulmonary cysticercosis manifesting as a mass lesion. Cysticercosis confined to lungs is a rare manifestation of human cysticercosis. The disease mainly affects the central nervous system, skeletal muscles, and eyes. Pulmonary involvement is rare and usually presents as bilateral pulmonary nodules. The diagnosis was made based on positive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for anticysticercal antibodies, and the patient was started on antiparasitic therapy along with steroids. Symptomatic and radiological improvement was seen. There is no previous case report of isolated pulmonary cysticercosis presenting as mass lesion.
我们报告一例表现为肿块性病变的肺囊尾蚴病。局限于肺部的囊尾蚴病是人类囊尾蚴病的一种罕见表现。该病主要影响中枢神经系统、骨骼肌和眼睛。肺部受累罕见，通常表现为双侧肺结节。根据抗囊尾蚴抗体酶联免疫吸附试验（ELISA）阳性做出诊断，患者开始接受抗寄生虫治疗并同时使用类固醇。患者出现了症状和影像学改善。此前没有孤立性肺囊尾蚴病表现为肿块性病变的病例报告。
