- Abstract
The article describes the case of a 60-year-old male who was diagnosed with disseminated neurocysticercosis. His computed tomography (CT) scan of the brain revealed multiple calcified lesions located bilaterally in the supratentorium and in the infratentorium, while the chest radiograph showed multiple cigar-shaped calcifications in the subcutaneous plane. Moreover, the cysts were found circumscribed and hypodense and do not enhance after contrast administration.
