Abstract

We report the seminal contributions of both Dr. Arthur Moses (Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, Rio de Janeiro), in 1911, and Dr. Oswaldo Lange (Faculdade de Medicina da USP, São Paulo), in 1940, to the diagnosis of neurocysticercosis (NC). Moses was the first person to report an immunologically based method for the diagnosis of NC, whereas Lange reported the cerebrospinal features of NC.
