Isolated Myocysticercosis of Pectoralis Major: A Rare Case.
Curēus 2024 March
Isolated myocysticercosis is a neglected tropical disease and a rare diagnosis, with only a handful of cases being reported in the literature. It is highlighted that recently, it has not only been limited to endemic regions but also persists globally due to widespread migration from endemic regions. We present a case of isolated myocysticercosis of the right pectoralis major without neurological involvement in a non-pork-eater. High-resolution ultrasonography is an effective method of diagnosis. Anti-helmintic drugs are effective treatment options; if not responding, surgical excision is the management of choice. Ultrasound-guided excision is a better treatment modality to prevent complications.
