作者报告了一个不寻常的情况下,一个巨大的肺实质囊肿在一个4岁的女孩引起多头带绦虫感染。手术切除囊肿后,孩子完全康复了。鼠尾草脑侵染是一种罕见疾病,主要在非洲报告,在发达国家也有少数病例报告。人类,尤其是年幼的儿童,通过摄入最终宿主(通常是食肉动物)的粪便中传递的卵而成为中间宿主。在这种情况下,据报死亡率和发病率很高。在引入计算机断层扫描和磁共振成像等现代神经放射学技术后,这些比率下降了。
The authors report an unusual case of a huge intraparenchymal cyst in a 4-year-old girl caused by Taenia multiceps infection. After surgical removal of the cyst, the child recovered completely. Brain infestation by coenurus is a rare disease, mainly reported in Africa, with a few case reports from patients in developed countries. Humans, especially young children, become intermediate hosts by ingesting eggs passed in the excrement of a definitive host, usually carnivores. In such cases, high mortality and morbidity rates have been reported. These rates decreased after the introduction of the modem neuroradiological techniques of computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging.
