脑囊虫病患者中枢神经系统的复杂病理生理和免疫学变化产生多种体征和症状，使这种疾病的临床和外科治疗复杂化。需要一个完整和客观的分类，以改善整个医疗方法。我们研究了336例患者，其中，我们分类的标准，在中枢神经系统中的寄生虫的生存能力和位置的神经囊尾蚴病：活动形式（37.2%）时，囊尾蚴是活着的，过渡形式（32.8%）时，它是在退化阶段，和非活动形式（30%）时，寄生虫是死的。这种分类建立了不同形式的神经囊尾蚴病及其临床表现之间的相关性，并可用于制定治疗策略。
The complicated pathophysiological and immunological changes in the central nervous system of patients with neurocysticercosis produce a variety of signs and symptoms, which complicate the clinical and surgical management of this disease. A complete and objective classification is needed, to improve the medical approach as a whole. We studied 336 patients, in whom we classified neurocysticerosis according to criteria of viability and location of the parasite in the CNS: active form (37.2%) when the cysticercus is alive, transitional form (32.8%) when it is in the degenerative phase, and inactive form (30%) when the parasite is dead. This classification establishes the correlation between the different forms of neurocysticerosis and its clinical manifestations, and can be used for planning therapeutic strategies.
