The involvement of the central nervous system in cysticercosis was demonstrate as an incidental finding in a frequence of 0,3% in 4000 autopsied cases. Most of the 12 patients came from rural areas of the State of Bahia. The low frequence compared to other sites reported in Brasil shows that the neurcysticercosis does not represent an important problem in Bahia. The host tissue response observed was represented by a chronic fibrosing inflammatory type of reaction. This study points out the importance of the methenamine silver stain (Grocott) in the identification of the degenerated embryo inside the fibrous and/or calcified lesions.
在4000例尸检病例中，囊尾蚴病累及中枢神经系统的情况作为偶然发现，其发生率为0.3%。12例患者中的大多数来自巴伊亚州农村地区。与巴西其他报道部位相比，该发生率较低，表明神经囊尾蚴病在巴伊亚州并非一个重要问题。观察到的宿主组织反应表现为慢性纤维化炎症反应类型。本研究指出了亚甲胺银染色（格罗科特）在识别纤维性和/或钙化性病变内退化胚胎方面的重要性。
