Association between epilepsy and cysticercosis and toxocariasis: A population‐based case–control study in a slum in India

Abstract

Our findings do not support an association between epilepsy and exposure to T. canis in the community studied. A significant association between T. solium exposure and epilepsy was observed. Of those with active epilepsy and evidence of NCC on MRI, a large proportion demonstrated solitary cysticercus granuloma.
