초록
Although Toxocara canis is known to cross the blood-brain barrier, central nervous system involvement is uncommon. Clinical manifestations vary and include cerebral infarction, meningoencephalitis, myelitis, vasculitis or seizure. However cerebral infarction and meningoencephalitis rarely occur simultaneously. We report a case of multiple cerebral infarction combined with eosinophilic meningoencephalitis in a patient with neurotoxocariasis. After control of increased intracranial pressure and treatment with albendazole and steroid, the patient’s clinical symptoms improved markedly
