Abstract: Cysticercosis is the most common parasitic disease of the CNS and the
main cause of secondary epilepsy in developing countries. We present the number of
patients with neurocysticercosis evaluated at a general hospital in San Luis Potosí,
Mexico, on the basis of the files of the department of neuroimaging. The prevalence of
neurocysticercosis that we found in this sample (28% of patients with secondary epilepsy)
confirm that this parasitic disease is a common cause of secondary epilepsy and a major
public health problem in our city.
