Validation of diagnostic criteria for solitary cerebral cysticercus granuloma in patients presenting with seizures

Abstract

Our diagnostic criteria help in not only accurately identifying an SCCG but also in differentiating it from a solitary tuberculoma and other brain masses. However, confirmation of the diagnosis of an SCCG is only obtained at follow-up evaluation and therefore careful clinical and CT re-evaluation is essential in all patients initially diagnosed to have an SCCG.
