Abstract:
A case of neurocysticercosis in an 11 year old female manifesting only as myoclonic seizures is reported. The diagnosis was based upon ELISA test, computed tomography, and biopsy of a subcutaneous nodule. The patient responded to anticysticerci drug treatment. Neurocysticercosis has not to our knowledge been previously reported to have presented with myoclonus.
