Acute purulent meningitis as a manifestation of cerebral cysticercosis is uncommon. We report two children aged 12 months and 3 years who presented with clinical signs of acute meningitis and whose initial cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), except for negative culture, was typical of purulent meningitis. However, eosinophils were present in subsequent examinations of the CSF and the haemagglutination titre for cysticercus rose. Praziquantel was given to both children with dramatic improvement in clinical and CSF findings.

急性化脓性脑膜炎作为脑囊虫病的表现并不常见。我们报告了两名年龄分别为12个月和3岁的儿童,他们表现出急性脑膜炎的临床症状,除阴性培养外,其初始脑脊液 (CSF) 是化脓性脑膜炎的典型表现。然而,在随后的CSF检查中存在嗜酸性粒细胞,并且囊尾蚴的血凝滴度上升。对两名临床和CSF表现均显着改善的儿童均给予吡喹酮。
