Abstract

A case of ocular cysticercosis which was successfully treated by surgical removal was presented in a 43-year-old man. Intractable diplopia and localized palpable mass in the nasal portion of the right upper eyelid were his chief complaints, that had been persisted for about 6 months. It was interesting that there were several episodes of dramatic improvement of those symptoms, and this delayed the decision of surgical treatment and its diagnosis.
