Neurocysticercosis (NCC) is a clinical condition characterized by involvement of the CNS by an encysted larval form of the parasite Taenia solium. It is a common cause of seizures and neurologic morbidity in developing countries. Brainmetastasis is a common complication of cancer, and cystic brain lesions often pose a diagnostic challenge in this clinical scenario. The imaging appearance of NCC onmagnetic resonance imaging (MRI) depends on the stage of the disease. To our knowledge, cystic lesions in NCC appearing hyperintense on T1-weighted, T2-weighted, and fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) images have not been described in the literature. We report one such a case, with multiple intracranial cystic lesions showing hyperintense signals on T1-weighted images.
