Alveolar echinococcosis of the femur

Acta Orthopaedica Scandinavica, 1984
A case of alveolar echinococcosis with involvement of the femur is described. Bone involvement is extremely rare in alveolar echinococcosis. Attention is drawn to the difficulty of diagnosis, and the therapeutic possibilities are discussed.

Alveolar Echinococcosis of the Spine

JCR: Journal of Clinical Rheumatology, 2001
Alveolar echinococcosis (AE) is a rare parasitic disease caused by the larval stage of Echinococcus multilocularis. It differs from cystic echinococcosis caused by Echinococcus granulosus. The main endemic areas of AE are Alaska, Canada, Japan, and parts of Europe. Hepatic involvement invariably occurs, but it is unusual for bone to be affected.

Cystic and alveolar echinococcosis

2013
Echinococcosis of the CNS is very rare. Cystic (CE) and alveolar echininococcosis (AE) vary in their clinical manifestations, course of disease, and prognosis, to the extent that clinicians should look at these two parasitic infections as distinctly different entities. CE causes displacement and pressure atrophy, while AE expands by infiltrative growth.

Hepatic Alveolar Echinococcosis

Acta Radiologica, 1999
Alveolar echinococcosis is a rare parasitic disease caused by Echinococcus multilocularis and most commonly involves the liver. Early diagnosis and precise evaluation of the localisation and the extent of the lesions are essential for treatment. In this report, we present US and CT findings in a patient with hepatic alveolar echinococcosis.

Alveolar Echinococcosis of the Liver

Journal of Computer Assisted Tomography, 1990
Nineteen cases of proven hepatic alveolar echinococcosis were examined by magnetic resonance (MR) and the results were compared with CT. Fibrous and parasitic tissue showed low signal both on T1- and, generally, on T2-weighted images. In a few cases a high signal on T2-weighted images may be observed, due either to central necrotic zones or to small ...

[Alveolar echinococcosis].

Revue medicale de Liege, 2006
Alveolar echinococcosis is a serious parasitic disease, leading to large hepatic lesions. It must be distinguished from cystic echinococcosis, or hydatic cyst, caused by Echinococcus granulosus. Early diagnosis may allow surgical removal of the lesions by segmental hepatectomy, the only curative treatment.

MRI of cerebral alveolar echinococcosis

Neuroradiology, 1999
Cerebral alveolar echinococcosis is rare. We report a case with multiple intracranial masses which show cauliflower-like contrast enhancement pattern on MRI. The lesions originated from hepatic involvement with invasion of the inferior vena cava.
