This study was planned to observe the clinical and radiological course of single small enhancing CT lesions in Indian patients presenting with new-onset-seizures. In this study, 75 patients with new-onset seizures and a single enhancing CT lesion were prospectively followed up for 1 year. All patients fulfilled the criteria of cysticercus granuloma. ⋯ In the majority of patients the lesions disappeared spontaneously and in a few the lesions calcified; hence these patients did not require anticysticercal therapy. Antiepileptic therapy was helpful in controlling further recurrences of seizures in most of the patients. A few patients experienced seizures even after disappearance of CT lesions.
