Alveolar echinococcosis of the femur [PDF]

open access: possibleActa 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.

CT Imaging Findings of Pulmonary Alveolar Echinococcosis.

Current medical imaging, 2022
Alveolar echinococcosis is a parasitic infection caused by Echinococcus multilocularis in the metacestode stage. The disease involves the liver in almost all cases, and additionally, lung involvement is accompanied in approximately 13% of the cases.

HLA and alveolar echinococcosis

Tissue Antigens, 1998
Abstract: Evidence in animal intermediate hosts that susceptibility to larval infection with Echinococcus multilocularis is restricted to individual host factors prompted us to investigate the susceptibility markers in humans. Because antigens of the extracellular parasite E multilocularis are possibly presented by MHC molecules in a restricted way ...

Intracerebral Alveolar Echinococcosis

Infection, 2003
There are two species of the genus Echinococcus, Echinococcus multilocularis (also called alveolar hydatid) and Echinococcus granulosus, characterized by distinct growth features in humans. The main endemic regions for human alveolar echinococcosis (AE) caused by E.

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.

Relevance of Pulmonary Alveolar Echinococcosis

Archivos de Bronconeumología (English Edition), 2020
Pulmonary alveolar echinococcosis (PAE) is a chronic disease caused by Echinococcus multilocularis with very low incidence in developed countries.This single-center, retrospective study included 34 patients who were diagnosed with PAE between January 2001 and February 2019 (15 males, 19 females, mean age: 52.4±15.8 years, age range: 28-78 years) in ...

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.

Metabolic mechanism and pharmacological study of albendazole in secondary hepatic alveolar echinococcosis (HAE) model rats

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy
Albendazole (ABZ) is the primary treatment for alveolar echinococcosis (AE); however, its limited solubility impacts oral bioavailability, affecting therapeutic outcomes. In this study, various ABZ-solubilizing formulations, including albendazole crystal

Immune Exhaustion of T Cells in Alveolar Echinococcosis Patients and Its Reversal by Blocking Checkpoint Receptor TIGIT in a Murine Model

Hepatology, 2020
The cestode Echinococcus multilocularis infection, a serious health problem worldwide, causes alveolar echinococcosis (AE), a tumor‐like disease predominantly located in the liver and able to spread to any organs.
