Racemose Neurocysticercosis Complicated with Hydrocephalus and Immune Reconstitution Inflammatory Syndrome. Key Findings in a Challenging Case (P8-3.011)

Here we present the case of a 33-year-old male patient with a history of Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) infection in his first 3 months of good adherence to antiretroviral therapy, who presented to the emergency department due to a week of headache, behavioural changes, fluctuating non-fluent aphasia, a first episode of seizures and altered awareness. Infectious and non-infectious conditions were considered. A diagnosis of Racemose Neurocysticercosis complicated with hydrocephalus and superimposed on Immune Reconstitution Inflammatory Syndrome (IRIS) was proposed.
