Here, we reported successful surgical management of cerebral peduncle neurocysticercosis.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Presentation of case<\/jats:title>\n \n A 65-year-old man with no medical history complained of headache and progressive right-sided hemiparesis for one month prior to admission. On examination, his muscle strength was 3\/5 (Frankel grade) with positive Hoffmann and Babinski\u2019s signs on the right side. His brain\u2019s magnetic resonance imaging suggested a cystic brain tumor (29 \u00d7 18 mm) situated in the left cerebral peduncle and hypothalamus region. Enzyme-linked immunoassays (ELISA) of serum for\n Cysticercus cellulosae, Echinococcus<\/jats:italic>\n ,\n Toxocara,<\/jats:italic>\n and\n Amebiasis<\/jats:italic>\n were negative. The operation was performed with the modified frontotemporal-orbitozygomatic approach. We extirpated both the cysts. Histopathological examination revealed the larva of\n Taenia solium.<\/jats:italic>\n Postoperatively, the hemiplegia was completely recovered, and no complication was reported\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Discussion<\/jats:title>\n The most recent revised diagnostic criteria of neurocysticercosis emphasised that neuroimaging studies play the most crucial role while clinical manifestations and exposure criteria were only indirect proofs of neurocysticercosis. Neuroimaging and clinical evidence in this patient, however, were more suggestive of cystic brain tumor, which was our most likely preoperative diagnosis. Consequently, total tumor resection required for both histopathological examination and alleviating his hemiplegia.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n Preoperative diagnosis of neurocysticercosis has always been a challenge. Total resection of the cerebral peduncle neurocysticercosis was adequate when the patient had localized neurological deficits.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Highlights<\/jats:title>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ijscr.2020.11.017","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,12,4]],"date-time":"2020-12-04T12:40:04Z","timestamp":1607085604000},"page":"26-29","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/lww.0000000000001000","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Surgical management of cerebral peduncle neurocysticercosis"],"prefix":"10.1097","volume":"78","author":[{"given":"He","family":"Van Dong","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Tam Duc","family":"Le","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Dat","family":"Tran","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Van Dinh","family":"Tran","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"276","container-title":["International Journal of Surgery Case Reports"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/api.elsevier.com\/content\/article\/PII:S2210261220310397?httpAccept=text\/xml","content-type":"text\/xml","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/api.elsevier.com\/content\/article\/PII:S2210261220310397?httpAccept=text\/plain","content-type":"text\/plain","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.lww.com\/10.1016\/j.ijscr.2020.11.017","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,1,14]],"date-time":"2026-01-14T13:47:50Z","timestamp":1768398470000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.lww.com\/10.1016\/j.ijscr.2020.11.017"}},"subtitle":["A case report of decision making in a resource-restricted environment"],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2021,1]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"C","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2021]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1016\/j.ijscr.2020.11.017","relation":{},"ISSN":["2210-2612"],"issn-type":[{"value":"2210-2612","type":"print"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2021,1]]}}}
