Article	Year
Leukoencephalopathy, cerebral calcifications, and cysts: case report. Clinical neurology and neurosurgery, 2012, Volume: 114, Issue:6 Topics: Adult; Anticonvulsants; Basal Ganglia Diseases; Brain; Calcinosis; Central Nervous System Cysts; Dystonia; Female; Gait Disorders, Neurologic; Humans; Infant, Newborn; Infant, Premature; Leukoencephalopathies; Levetiracetam; Magnetic Resonance Imaging; Muscle Spasticity; Neurologic Examination; Piracetam; Seizures; Spinal Puncture; Tomography, X-Ray Computed	2012
Short report: A calcified Taenia solium granuloma associated with recurrent perilesional edema causing refractory seizures: histopathological features. The American journal of tropical medicine and hygiene, 2011, Volume: 85, Issue:3 We describe the first detailed histological description of an excised calcified Taenia solium granuloma from a patient who developed recurrent seizures associated with perilesional edema surrounding a calcified cysticercus (PEC). The capsule, around a degenerated cysticercus, contained marked mononuclear infiltrates that extended to adjacent brain, which showed marked astrocytosis, microgliosis, and inflammatory perivascular infiltrates. The presence of large numbers of mononuclear cells supports an inflammatory cause of PEC. Immunosuppression or anti-inflammatory measures may be able to treat and prevent PEC and recurrent seizures. Topics: Albendazole; Animals; Anthelmintics; Anticonvulsants; Calcinosis; Edema; Granuloma; Humans; Levetiracetam; Male; Neurocysticercosis; Piracetam; Seizures; Taenia solium; Valproic Acid; Young Adult	2011
