Eosinophilic granulocytes in the CSF were observed in 94 of approximately 10,000 qualitative cytologic preparations. Those cases of eosinophilia which occurred in the context of a parasitic disease or a puncture-related hemorrhage were excluded. CSF eosinophilia exceeding 1% was found in 57.5% of th
As a modification of the classical complement fixation test, a new test for immunodiagnosis in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) was developed. When the assay was used for the diagnosis of neurocysticercosis in 149 CSF samples from patients and 1036 from controls, results showed 93% concordance with positiv
