Neurocysticercosis is a contributor of late onset epilepsy[1]

Disease classification WHO
B 69.0 neurocysticercosis

Several studies have reported an association between epilepsy and NC based on positive serum antibodies against Taenia solium, which has distorted the perception of the epidemiology of epilepsy related to NC. Immunoserologic assays, such as enzyme-linked immunoelectrotransfer blot assay (EITB) or enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), detect antibodies against T. solium
