| Abstract: | Solitary cheek swellings can present a diagnostic dilemma. We managed two children 10 y and 8 y presenting with pain and swelling on one side of cheek for over 15 d and no constitutional symptoms. Sonography showed cysticercosis in both of them. We treated both with steroids and albendazole, with good response. |
