As neuroimaging findings can be nonspecific, serology may be helpful, but when still in doubt, brain biopsy, and histopathology may be necessary to make the correct diagnosis.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Abstract<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Neurocysticercosis (NCC) is a well\u2010documented central nervous system helminth infection that is, frequently observed in developing countries. Known sites of NCC infection include the highly vascular gray\u2010white matter junction, basal cistern, brain parenchyma, subarachnoid space, ventricular system, and spinal cord. This case highlights an uncommon yet intriguing site of NCC infection within the suprasellar area, which presented with similar clinical and imaging characteristics as suprasellar masses or lesions. The 44\u2010year\u2010old female initially complained of headaches and nausea that persisted for 5\u2009years and progressed to vision problems and short\u2010term memory loss. A craniopharyngioma was initially suspected, based on imaging findings of a partially calcified suprasellar tumor. However, cysticercosis was confirmed by histopathology and serological testing positive for Cysticercus IgG antibodies. The patient was successfully treated with albendazole and tapering doses of steroids, which improved her presenting symptoms and resolved prior imaging findings. This case serves as a reminder to consider NCC in the differential diagnosis of sellar and suprasellar masses or lesions, particularly when an epidemiologic risk factor is present.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/ccr3.8166","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,11,30]],"date-time":"2023-11-30T22:44:09Z","timestamp":1701384249000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Neurocysticercosis mimicking craniopharyngioma: A case report"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"11","author":[{"given":"Aliya F.","family":"Rehman","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Jackson Health System  Miami Florida USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Alex F.","family":"Lazo\u2010Vasquez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Atlantic Health System  Morristown New Jersey USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Parjanya K.","family":"Bhatt","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"B.J.
