Neurocysticercosis is a condition rarely reported in Japan, and therefore, the specific route of infestation in our set up has not been conclusively elucidated. Preoperative diagnosis remains difficult to make with certainty due to the slowly evolving nature of the disease and the fact that there are no typical characteristic clinical findings particularly associated with the disease. The hematological, serological, serum biochemistry, stool, and radiological tests were nonspecific for neurocysticercosis. The characteristic neuro-imaging findings were demonstrated in this case, and histopathology confirmed Taenia solium parenchymal infestation.
