摘要
Isolated orbital cysticercosis is rare. A 54-year-old woman had unilateral, painful, axial, and downward proptosis; palpable, superomedial mass; blepharoptosis; and painful ocular movements. Findings of ultrasonography and computed tomography corroborated the clinical diagnosis of pseudotumor: However; failure of medical therapy prompted us to order magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), which outlined a cyst with cysticercus features Death of the parasite was thought to cause the sudden increased size of the cyst.
