Cerebral sparganosis is a rare but underestimated parasitic disease caused by infestation by sparganum. It is difficult to make a confirmed preoperational diagnosis of this disease given the absence of characteristic clinical manifestations. A detailed protocol for the diagnosis and treatment of cerebral sparganosis is still lacking in the literature. In this article the authors set out comprehensive procedures for the diagnosis and treatment of cerebral sparganosis, describing the use of a stereotactic aspiration technique complemented by microsurgery based on experience gained from multiple cases.
