| description | The objective of this study was to carry out a literature review on neurocysticercosis. In this sense, a literature review was performed based on articles published on Bireme and Pubmed in the period 2018–2024. The descriptor was used: “intrasellar cysticercosis.” Five studies met the eligibility criteria. Headache was the main symptom observed. The prevalence of the disease by age profile occurred mainly in young adults. The lack of general knowledge and the lack of resources for prevention, diagnosis, and early treatment may be factors that contribute to the persistence of the disease in the population. Furthermore, the lack of resources, such as neuroimaging exams and neurological care, makes it difficult to diagnose and treat the disease; thus, delaying diagnosis contributes to the spread of the infection. |
