Biraj Kumar Sarma and Jitumoni Das

Cerebral Coenurosis caused by larval stage of Taenia multiceps has been reported from time to time in various herbivores and produces a neurological clinical condition commonly known as GID. It produces cyst and most of the cysts are located in the cerebral hemispheres and spinal cord with development of neurological clinical condition. The present study was conducted among 10 cases of goat presented with the clinical symptoms of cerebral coenurosis in Joyhing area of Lakhimpur district of Assam, India. Among the 10 cases, 7 were female and 3 were male. History and clinical finding were found to be useful diagnosing tools for clinical cases in field level and easy technique of surgical extraction of coenurus cyst from the brain under local anaesthesia is the suitable treatment for uneventful recovery with no post-operative complications.
