Calcified cerebral hydatid cyst.

Abstract:

:A 32-year-old patient with a lifelong history of epileptic attacks is described. A skull X-ray showed a round calcified nonhomogenous left frontotemporal mass. A CT scan confirmed its presence, as well as displacement of the left lateral and the third ventricles. At surgery a calcified inactive hydatid cyst was totally removed. Full recovery took place two months later. A differential diagnosis of hydatic cysts should be made when a calcified brain mass is found in patients from an endemic echinococcosis area.

  • Focal neurological deficit with sudden onset as the first manifestation of sarcoidosis: a case report with MRI follow-up.

    abstract::Stroke as a presenting manifestation of sarcoidosis has rarely been reported. This contrasts with the frequent anatomopathological findings of cerebrovascular involvement in neurosarcoidosis. We present a patient who developed acutely a right brachiofacial weakness and dysarthria. Pulmonary sarcoidosis was found. A br...
