RESUMEN
Neurocysticercosis is the most common parasitic infection of the nervous system. However, the improvement in public health made the prevalence of neurocysticercosis low. Neurocysticercosis may have symptoms such as seizures, headache, and hydrocephalus, and calcified neurocysticercosis is generally known to be asymptomatic and inert. Also, status epilepticus associated with neurocysticercosis has been rarely reported. Therefore, we report a case of focal status epilepticus caused by calcified neurocysticercosis that invaded the subarachnoid space, which is uncommon pathophysiology of neurocysticercosis.
