Abstract

Ocular cysticercosis does not usually present with signs of systemic involvement. Stool examination and eosinophil count are invariably negative, but computed tomography and agglutination tests are more commonly positive. This condition is more common in the vitreous cavity where it may cause diagnostic problems. Removal of the cyst is a standardised procedure, but the prognosis is poor because of severe ocular reaction to the cysts. Prevention of cysticercus infection is very important.

摘要

眼囊尾蚴病通常不会出现全身受累的体征。粪便检查和嗜酸性粒细胞计数始终为阴性，但计算机断层扫描和凝集试验更常呈阳性。这种情况在玻璃体腔中更为常见，可能会导致诊断问题。囊肿摘除是一种标准化程序，但由于眼部对囊肿的严重反应，预后较差。预防囊尾蚴感染非常重要。
