Infection of muscle tissue is generally asymptomatic. Cyst development in the brain and spinal cord is known as neurocysticercosis (NCC) and may cause seizures and headache. NCC can follow a serious course and may be life-threatening. Severe cases of cysticercosis are treated with albendazole and anti-inflammatory drugs. icd11.foundation:1324863907 NORD:1027 UMLS:C0010678 MEDGEN:4122 tapeworm infection: pork ICD9:123.1 neurocysticercosis EFO:0007231 tapeworm infection: [intestinal taenia solium] or [pork] MONDO:0015484 SCTID:59051007 DOID:10079 GARD:0008194 MedDRA:10011775 NCIT:C34520 Orphanet:1560 tapeworm infection: intestinal taenia solum ICD10CM:B69
