Abstract
We describe a case of a 28-year-old Latino man who presented with signs and symptoms of raised intracranial pressure and radiographic evidence of a third ventricular cystic lesion. The cyst was removed via a transcallosal approach; the histology was noted to be a cysticercal lesion. The radiographic and histological features of this interesting case are discussed.
