Abstract
Cysticercosis is due to a larva of Taenia Solium. It is frequently reported in developing countries. It usually affects subcutaneous tissue, muscles and brain. But, spinal cysticercosis is rare and is usually diagnosed at surgery. Authors experienced a case of spinal cysticercosis accompanied with spondylolistheses at the same level. Space occupying lesion and arachnoiditis, confirmed by MMCT and MRI, were noted at the same level of spondylolistheses. So, it was very hard to make dicision whether we should open up the dura or not.
