Global Distribution of Alveolar and Cystic Echinococcosis [PDF]
Alveolar echinococcosis (AE) and cystic echinococcosis (CE) are severe helminthic zoonoses. Echinococcus multilocularis (causative agent of AE) is widely distributed in the northern hemisphere where it is typically maintained in a wild animal cycle including canids as definitive hosts and rodents as intermediate hosts.

We report a case where the complete membranes of a ruptured pulmonary hydatid cyst were removed during conscious sedation bronchoscopy. Abstract The complete removal of a pulmonary hydatid cyst by bronchoscopy occurs rarely in clinical practice. We describe a 22‐year‐old male originally from Lebanon, with suspected hydatid cyst rupture on computed ...

Abstract This report comprises the 14th assessment of the Echinococcus multilocularis surveillance scientific reports, provided by Finland, Ireland, United Kingdom (Northern Ireland) and Norway on their respective surveillance programmes. Every year since 2012, EFSA presents the assessment to the European Commission in which the sampling strategy, data

Cystic echinococcosis (CE) is a global health concern caused by cestodes. In this retrospective case study, Fourier transform infrared microscopy was explored for detecting and identifying CE through biochemical changes in human tissue sections. Results revealed the method's ability to distinguish echinococcus elements from human tissue, irrespective ...

Role of the radiologist in the diagnosis and management of the two forms of hepatic echinococcosis
Echinococcosis is a parasitic disease caused by two zoonotic tapeworms (cestodes) of the Echinocococcus genus. It can be classified as either alveolar or cystic echinococcosis.

The role of cell‐free DNA in non‐invasive diagnosis of urinary tract infection
Abstract Urinary tract infection (UTI) constitutes a pervasive health concern. UTIs are dichotomously classified into upper and lower strata, and further categorized as either complicated or uncomplicated. Upper UTIs predominantly afflict the renal and ureteral domains, typified by conditions exemplified in pyelonephritis, whereas lower UTIs manifest ...

Prevalence of human alveolar echinococcosis in China: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Background Human alveolar echinococcosis (HAE), caused by the larvae of Echinococcus multilocularis, is a severe parasitic disease that is a major public health concern. New HAE cases in China account for 91% of the global HAE burden every year. Although

Populations at Risk for Alveolar Echinococcosis, France
During 1982-2007, alveolar echinococcosis (AE) was diagnosed in 407 patients in France, a country previously known to register half of all European patients. To better define high-risk groups in France, we conducted a national registry-based study to identify areas where persons were at risk and spatial clusters of cases. We interviewed 180 AE patients

Liver Alveolar Echinococcosis Metastasized to the Breast [PDF]
Alveolar echinococcosis (AE) is a potentially fatal and chronically progressive infestation produced by the multivesicular metacestode of Echinococcus multilocularis, which most commonly affects the liver, lungs, and brain.We present a case of AE in which an alveolar cyst, as a result of exophytic growth, adhered to intra-abdominal and pelvic organs ...
