Resumo: A male 22 years old patient who consulted due to headache and increasing visual loss is being presented. Alterations in the exam were represented by right amaurosis and left temporal hemianopsis. Pathological and tomographical studies revealed chronic pachymeningitis with eosinophilic infiltration. An elevated eosinophilia and an increasing in anti-A and anti-B isoagglutinins were associated to the clinical course. They returned to normal values after treatment with tiabendazol. Even though there is not a certain conclusion as regards the etiology, the probable parasitary nature of the process is outlined.
