Brain parenchymal, subarachnoid racemose, and intraventricular cysticercosis in an Indian man
Postgrad Med J.

Abstract
The coexistence of brain parenchymal cysts at various stages of evolution, both intraventricular and subarachnoid racemose, is reported in a patient with neurocysticercosis. The condition has a variety of presentations, depending on the location of the cyst. This case is of particular interest because of the rarity of this condition in India.
