Four cases of isolated fourth ventricle in neurocysticerocosis are reported (three after ventriculoperitoneal shunting, and one after hydrocephalus without shunting). Diagnosis was made based on computed tomography (CT) and/or CT cisternogram/ventriculogram. Three patients underwent fourth ventricle drainage (two died and the third remains well). The fourth patient refused surgical treatment and continues to have severe ataxia. Diagnosis, pathophysiology, and treatment of this entity in neurocysticercosis are discussed.
报告了4例神经囊尾蚴病孤立性第四脑室病例（3例在脑室腹腔分流术后，1例在未行分流术的脑积水后）。诊断基于计算机断层扫描（CT）和/或CT脑池造影/脑室造影。3例患者接受了第四脑室引流（2例死亡，第3例情况良好）。第4例患者拒绝手术治疗，仍有严重共济失调。本文讨论了神经囊尾蚴病中该实体的诊断、病理生理学和治疗。
