Résumé
Taenia solium (Ts) cysticercosis is a neglected zoonotic disease particularly prevalent in Madagascar. Few data are available for children, current data mainly rely on antibody prevalence. We sought to determine the Ts-antigen seroprevalence-determining active cysticercosis-amongst school children from various cities in Madagascar (excluding the capital) and evaluated associated risk factors.
