Successive magnetic resonance image scans showed lesions of the thoracic spinal cord that were at different levels from one examination to the next. Specific anti-gnathostome antibodies were detected by means of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and Western blot test in both plasma and cerebrospinal fluid. Albendazole treatment prevented disease progression, but only partial regression of the neurologic symptoms was obtained.Mahidol UniversityMedicineMedullary gnathostomiasis in a white patient: use of immunodiagnosis and magnetic resonance imagingArticleSCOPUS10.1086/320520
