case_images: A computed tomographic (CT) scan of the brain showed marked ventricular dilatation but no intraparenchymal lesions or intraventricular cysticercal lesions (Figure 1).
case_images: Whole-spine magnetic resonance images of the patient. A, B, C, D: Sagittal and axial T2-weighted images and postcontrast T1-weighted image showing multiple diffuse abnormal signals.

case_images: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the thoraco-lumbar spine revealed multiple cystic contrast-enhancing intraspinal lesions extending from C7 to S1 (Figure 2).
case_images: Brain computed tomography scan showing improved ventricular dilatation after ventriculoperitoneal shunting.
