|
The author´has recently experienced two cases of cysticercosis which. occurred under the superior bulbar subconjunctiva, and the caruncle. These cases were not associated with any other systemic lesions elsewhere in the body. The cysts were surgically removed and the microscopic examination confirmed a well preserved cysticercus cellulosae.
According to the previous reports, the cysticercosis occurs frequently in the ocular region. In the ocular region, the subretina and the vitreous cavity are the predominating areas. :The author experienced subconjunctival cysticercosis in the eye where it has rarely been reported: The ocular cysticercosis is known as a very rare case in Korea. A brief medical history of cases and a review of the related reports are presented.
