Cysticercosis is a frequent health problem in developing countries. The disease is due to infection by Taenia solium larvae and is predominant in areas where pigs and humans cohabite. Inappropriate breeding conditions and poor hygiene especially inadequate disposal or management of faeces are factors responsible of disease's transmission. In human, there are various clinical manifestations but the neurological involvement is particular severe as it frequently causes epilepsy which has an important socio economic impact among communities. In Cameroon, high prevalence of cysticercosis related epilepsy has been described in areas where pigs are bred. We aim to assess cysticercosis in humans and pigs public health burden and surveillance tools in communities where there is an intensive activity of pig breeding and high rates of epilepsy, identify behavioural and environmental risks factors of transmission of the disease in improving appropriate evidence-based interventions.
