Perilesional gliosis around solitary cerebral parenchymal cysticerci and long-term seizure outcome: A prospective study using serial magnetization transfer imaging

Abstract

Perilesional gliosis around SCC helps prognosticate seizure outcome. Poorer outcome in patients with persistent lesions is likely to be related to mechanisms other than gliosis. The lack of effect of albendazole on seizure outcome may be due to its inability to decrease formation of gliosis.
