The authors report 2 cases of brain localisation of cysticercosis due to Cysticercus cellulosae. In both cases epilepsy was found but only later was its origin proved by the finding of characteristic ellipsoidal calcifications of cysticerci on the roentgenogram. The authors also recall the various possible symptoms ; insist on the fact that early positive diagnosis is difficult and that the mode of treatment by surgery is exceptional. Though cysticercosis is rare in France, it should be remembered when a diagnosis of epilepsy is made and no apparent cause is found : further research of etiology should thus be made in such cases.
