Abstract

Invasion of the central nervous system (CNS) by parasitic worms often represents most severe complication of human helminthiasis. The pathways from the portal of entry to the CNS are manifold and differ from species to species. In this mini-review, we analysed the contemporary knowledge and current concepts of the routes pathogenic helminths take to gain access to brain, spinal cord and subarachnoid space. © 2010 Elsevier Ireland Ltd.
