  • García Lescano, Héctor Hugo; Del Brutto, Oscar H. (Elsevier, 2017)
    Antiparasitic agents against Taenia solium cysticercosis have been in use since 1979, although its use has been questioned on the basis that cysts would die naturally and thus treatment-induced inflammation is unnecessary. ...

  • Castañeda Carpio, David (Universidad Peruana Cayetano HerediaPE, 2021)
    Taenia solium develops into a sexually mature flatworm exclusively in the human gut; its eggs are excreted with the host´s feces, contaminating water, soil, and food. The evagination of the scolex from the ingested larval ...
  • Orrego Solano, Miguel Angel (Universidad Peruana Cayetano HerediaPE, 2022)
    La neurocisticercosis racemosa es una enfermedad agresiva causada por la expansión y proliferación aberrante de la membrana del quiste de Taenia solium dentro del espacio subaracnoideo del cerebro humano causando un efecto ...
  • Ponce Almerí, Reynaldo (Universidad Peruana Cayetano HerediaPE, 2017)
    La neurocisticercosis (NCC) es una enfermedad parasitaria que afecta al sistema nervioso central y es causada por la larva de Taenia solium, siendo una de las principales parasitosis en el Perú debido a su alta prevalencia. ...
  • Gutiérrez Loli, Renzo Marcelo (Universidad Peruana Cayetano HerediaPE, 2016)
    La neurocisticercosis, hiperdémica en el Perú, es la infección cerebral causada por el estadio larval (quiste) de Taenia solium, cuya manifestación clínica más frecuente son las crisis epilépticas. Esta enfermedad ha sido ...
  • Orrego Solano, Miguel Ángel; Verastegui Pimentel, Manuela Renee; García Lescano, Héctor Hugo (Frontiers Media, 2022)
    Taenia solium is a cestode parasite with a complex life cycle that includes two mammalian hosts: pigs and humans. Humans are the only definitive host, in whose small intestine develops and lives the adult form of the ...

  • García Lescano, Héctor Hugo; Nash, Theodore E.; Del Brutto, Oscar H. (Elsevier, 2014)
    The infection of the nervous system by the cystic larvae of Taenia solium (neurocysticercosis) is a frequent cause of seizure disorders. Neurocysticercosis is endemic or presumed to be endemic in many low-income countries. ...
