摘要：
Patient presented with swelling over right temporal region causing the dilemma over diagnosis. Sonography and CT scan confirmed the presence of cysticercus in right temporal region. Pharmacological management was instituted and the cyst resolved eventually. Ultrasonography and CT imaging play an important role in establishing the diagnosis of rare case of cysticercosis of temporalis muscle and can be treated successfully by pharmacological modality. © 2015, The Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons of India.
