摘要
Cysticercosis is caused by the larval stage of Taenia Solium. A middle aged woman presented with a painless solitary nodular swelling on left lateral border of the tongue. Fine needle aspiration cytology revealed only blood elements. Excision biopsy was done and sent for histopathological examination which revealed larvae of the pork tapeworm (Cysticercosis). Cysticercosis in human tissues is unusual. Oral cysticercosis, especially the involvement of tongue is very rare in humans.
