Abstract
Presents the case report of a 32-year-old man who was presented to an outside emergency room for behaving strangely and whose CT scan demonstrated enlarged lateral ventricles, prominent temporal horns and rounding of the third ventricle. We identified a cysticercosis cyst which was round to oval in shape. With a definitive diagnosis the common treatment of neurocysticercosis is albendazole and steroids. The treatment for intraventricular cysts is twice the dose of albendazole. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved)
