Rationale for change

Question basically said guy comes in with seizures, has a cystic lesion in brain, this is what is shown. whats the cause?

answer is neurocystericerosis.

In hind sight it makes sense but this is the first time ive ever seen histology of neurocyster..

To my knowledge this image is nowhere in the deck so adding this will atleast help learners associate this appearance with this pathology. we always reference radiological imaging findings but never histological.

This is the closest i can find to what the picture showed, it literally looks like broken glass (threw me off completely)
