Hepatic alveolar echinococcosis simulating metastatic malignancy [PDF]

Autopsy and Case Reports
Echinococcosis is a parasitic disease caused by infection with tiny tapeworms of the genus Echinococcus. Echinococcosis is classified as either cystic echinococcosis or alveolar echinococcosis.

Rare Case of Multifocal Alveolar Echinococcosis [PDF]

Journal of the Belgian Society of Radiology
Teaching Point: Hepatic alveolar echinococcosis can mimic a slow-growing tumor, and multi-organ involvement is rare; imaging has a crucial role in diagnosing this zoonosis that is endemic in the southern part of Belgium.

Alveolar Echinococcosis in Children [PDF]

Case Reports in Pediatrics, 2020
Alveolar echinococcosis (AE) is an infectious zoonotic disease that is caused by Echinococcus multilocularis. The disease is generally identified accidentally because of the long asymptomatic period, has a malignant behaviour, and mainly occurs in the liver. Usually it is diagnosed in adults and is very rare in pediatric patients.

Canine Alveolar Echinococcosis: An Emerging and Costly Introduced Problem in North America

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, 2023
Alveolar echinococcosis (AE), caused by the metacestode of Echinococcus multilocularis, is emerging in both dogs and people in North America. Here, we review 27 cases of canine AE opportunistically reported since the index case was described in 2009 in ...
