Abstract

RAMIREZ-BERMUDEZ, Jesús  and  CORONA, Teresa. Neuropsiquiatic manifestation in cerebral cysticercosis. Arch. Neurocien. (Mex., D.F.) [online]. 2005, vol.10, n.2, pp.92-94. ISSN 1028-5938.

Neurocysticercosis is a common parasitic disease affecting the central nervous system. In this article, we present a review of the literature regarding the psychiatric manifestations observed in this population, with a particular emphasis in cognitive decline, depression and psychosis. Also, we present the available information regarding the possible mechanisms of production of these mental disorders in patients with NCC.

Keywords : neuropsychiatry; dementia; neurocysticercosis; nervous system.
