Abstract
Cysticercosis is due to cysticercus cellulosae and was know since a long time. Human is an intermediate occasional host by ingesting accidentally eggs of tenia. In Madagascar, neurocysticercosis are predominating (55%), occular localisations are not frequent (5%) and concerned particularly vitreous humour and retina. Diagnosis relies on serology: Elisa test, then Western Blot completed with research of circulating antibody and antigen in the acqueous humor by immocapture. Anatomopathologic test permits to confirm the diagnosis. Contribution of tomodensitometry is not conclusive therapeutic is summed up to a specific and symptomatic treatment with surgical extirpation when out means allow it.
