Abstract

Brain hydatidosis is a rare disease which may have no symptoms or sign for a long time. In this case report, the woman 46-year-old has had a typical multiple cysts in the right parieto-occipital lobe of brain for years that it seems to be silent for long time because eight cysts formed on brain cavity. The patient with vague headaches and blurred vision and cerebrovascular accident, clogged arteries, and stutter symptoms was referred to the Vali-e-Asr Hospital in Arak, located in Markazi Province, central of Iran. The results of the CT scan and MRI revealed multiple hydatid cyst in brain due to the surgery on of the cyst was ruptured, and the cavity was washed with silver nitrate solution for prevention of secondary hydatid cyst. After the surgery, the patient woke up with full consciousness and general well-being. In patients with hydatid cyst, it should be considered as a differential diagnosis of lesions related to the cystic space of the brain.

多发脑包虫病1例报告

脑包虫病是一种罕见的疾病，可能长期没有症状或体征。本病例报告中，46岁的女性患有典型的右侧顶枕叶多发性囊肿多年，由于在颅腔上形成了8个囊肿，似乎长期沉默。该患者有模糊的头痛和视力模糊、脑血管意外、动脉阻塞和口吃症状，被转诊到位于伊朗中部马卡齐省阿拉克的Vali-e-Asr医院。CT扫描及MRI结果显示因手术导致脑内多发包虫囊肿破裂，为预防继发性包虫囊肿，用硝酸银溶液冲洗腔内。手术后，患者醒来时意识完全清醒，总体健康。对于包虫囊肿患者，应将其作为与脑囊腔相关病变的鉴别诊断。
