Oral cysticercosis: case report.
Oral Surg Oral Med Oral Pathol Oral Radiol Endod. 2007 Oct; 104(4):e56-8.OS

Abstract

Frequent in developing countries, cysticercosis is a parasitic infection that rarely involves the mouth. This study reports a case of oral cysticercosis in a 13-year-old female patient who had an asymptomatic nodule in the right labial mucosa. An excisional biopsy was carried out and the histopathologic examination revealed a cystic space containing a Taenia solium larva.
