Resumen : La cisticercosis por Taenia solium es una enfermedad zoonótica, en la cual el cerdo es el hospedador intermediario y el hombre el hospedador definitivo...
Descripción : Cysticercosis by Taenia solium is a zoonotic disease, in which the pig is the intermediate host and the man the definitive host. Neurocysticercosis (NCC) occurs when man becomes an intermediate host by eating foods contaminatedwith viable taenia eggs, therefore, the infection is fecal-oral. A relationship between neurocysticercosis and epilepsy has been demonstrated; It is estimated that 60 to 90 por ciento of people with neurocysticercosis have epilepsy. In Ecuador, there are few studies on the endemic areas of T. solium; For this reason, it is very important to study the spatial and temporal relationship between the cases of epilepsy and neurocysticercosis. A retrospective study was carried out, using the INEC public databases, on the hospital reports of diseases in time and space, from 2005 to 2015. Primary and secondary clusters of diseases were observed to estimate the Endemic areas in the country. Specific databases on the two diseases were created with the necessary data. For statistical analysis, we used Satscan, which is a software that allows the analysis of spatial, temporal and spatiotemporal data, using Poisson regression. This analysis allowed to observe the clusters in the country. We determined in the analysis space, that there is a primary cluster in Loja. And another primary cluster in Cuenca, the latter being present in several years. The secondary cluster is much larger, so there is no exact location where more cases of the disease are found. The most representative clusters were: Riobamba and Quito; These are centers of reception for a greater number of patients by the existing health infrastructure, for which there is more presence of the disease.
