There has been a gradual change in the socio-demographic trends of ocular/adnexal cysticerosis. We present the results of a 5-year study of 33 cases of ocular/adnexal cysticercosis and compare our observations with those reported by previous authors. The male:female ratio in our study was 2:1 and maximum number of patients (45%) belonged to the age-group of 31-40 years. Seventy percent of our patients were of low socio-economic status and 70% were strictly vegetarians. The most common location of cysticerci was in the vitreous (50% of all cases); orbital cysts were present in 5% and subconjunctival cyst in 3%. Most common extraocular site for associated cysticercosis was the brain (18%): Ultrasonography proved to be an effective and economical alternative to magnetic resonance imaging and computerized tomographic scanning for the detection of cysticerci in the orbit and in eyes with hazy media.
眼/附件囊尾蚴病的社会人口学趋势已逐渐发生变化。我们展示了一项对33例眼/附件囊尾蚴病进行的为期5年的研究结果,并将我们的观察结果与先前作者报告的结果进行比较。我们研究中的男女比例为2:1,最大数量的患者(45%)属于31 - 40岁年龄组。我们70%的患者社会经济地位较低,70%是严格的素食者。囊尾蚴最常见的位置是玻璃体(占所有病例的50%);眼眶囊肿占5%,结膜下囊肿占3%。相关囊尾蚴病最常见的眼外部位是脑(18%):超声检查被证明是一种有效且经济的替代方法,可用于检测眼眶及介质模糊的眼中的囊尾蚴,替代磁共振成像和计算机断层扫描。
