TY - JOUR PY - 1990// TI - Unsuspected cerebral Toxocara infection in a fire victim JO - Clinical neuropathology A1 - Nelson, J. A1 - Frost, James L. A1 - Schochet, Sydney S. SP - 106 EP - 108 VL - 9 IS - 2 N2 - This report documents cerebral involvement by Toxocara in a child who died in a fire. Although visceral larval migrans caused by Toxocara canis is relatively common, especially in the southern states, cerebral involvement rarely has been documented histologically. Foci of inflammation, consistent with visceral larva migrans, were present in the liver.
