Focal neurological deficit like monoparesis due to cortical lesions is a rare entity.In spite of the common presentations like seizures and headaches in neurocysticercosis, occurrence of reversible monoparesis is an atypical phenomenon. Even in the absence of infarct or hemorrhages, manifestation of neural deficit due to compressive effect only is an interesting finding. And on top of that, reversible nature of the deficit in space occupying lesion is a rare occurrence in the existing literature. Here, we describe a known case of neurocysticercosis with reversible acute monoparesis secondary to multiple neurocysticercosis. The variations with which neurocysticercosis can present broaden our understanding in its pathophysiology and management protocol.
