case_images: (a) Axial contrast-enhanced CT scan image showing the cysticercus with an eccentric scolex (arrow) within the third ventricle causing obstruction of both lateral ventricles. (b) T2 FLAIR axial image showing the cysticercus with an eccentric scolex (arrow) within the third ventricle causing obstruction of both lateral ventricles

case_images: The fourth ventricle was normal [Figure 1a]. A cystic structure was seen within the third ventricle, distending it [Figure 1b].
case_images: (a) T2 FLAIR axial image (post operative) showing a normal third ventricle (arrow). The cysticercus is not seen within the third ventricle. (b) T2 FLAIR axial image (post operative) showing the cysticercus (arrow) within the occipital horn of the right lateral ventricle

case_images: The third ventricle did not reveal the neurocysticercus [Figure 2a]. The cysticercus was now seen to have migrated into the occipital horn of the right lateral ventricle [Figure 2b].
