Neurocysticercosis is the most common parasitic infection of the central nervous system in humans. The adult pork tape worm, Taenia solium, resides in the lumen of the intestine, and the only structural element of an adult worm usually found within a tissue cyst in the brain or in muscle is a single invaginated scolex. We report a highly unusual, and perhaps unique, occurrence of neurocysticercosis in which an aberrant worm-like larval form, 12.5 cm in length, was found within a cyst in brain parenchyma.
神经囊尾蚴病是人类中枢神经系统最常见的寄生虫感染。成年猪带绦虫（有钩绦虫）寄生于肠腔，而在脑或肌肉组织囊肿中通常发现的成年绦虫的唯一结构成分是单个内陷的头节。我们报告了一例非常罕见且可能独一无二的神经囊尾蚴病病例，在脑实质的一个囊肿内发现了一条异常的蠕虫样幼虫，长12.5厘米。
