The disease is now the most common helminthic infection of the nervous system in humans, and its prevalence has risen significantly even in countries where it was formerly considered exotic. The introduction of modern neuroimaging and serologic techniques has improved the diagnosis of neurocysticercosis; furthermore, the development of potent cysticidal drugs has changed the prognosis of most affected patients. Nevertheless, much remains to be learned about this parasitic disease. This book provides a comprehensive and up-to-date review of the various aspects of cysticercosis of the nervous system that will be of interest to all who are involved in the care of patients with this disease. Epidemiology, neuropathology, immunopathogenesis, clinical manifestations, diagnosis, and management are all thoroughly discussed based on current evidence and practice. . | | 出版日期 | Book 2014 | | 关键词 | Cysticercosis; Helminthic Infectons; Neurocysticercosis; Parasitic Diseases; Taenia solium | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-642-39022-7 | | isbn_softcover | 978-3-642-44027-4 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-642-39022-7 | | copyright | Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2014 |
