Epidemiology of neurocysticercosis and epilepsy, is everything described?
Epilepsy & Behavior : E&B 2017 November
In recent years clinical and epidemiological research on cysticercosis has gained significant interest in some countries, especially in Latin American countries and some countries in Asia and Africa. For many years it has been proposed that the higher prevalence of epilepsy seen in some regions such as Latin-America could be explained by parasitic infections, particularly neurocysticercosis (NCC). In this review we discussed selected epidemiological topics of the association of NCC and epilepsy, such as global distribution around the world, identification of NCC in developed countries, drug resistant epilepsy and NCC. Finally this review presents a critical review of biases of the published literature in NCC. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled "Neurocysticercosis and Epilepsy".
