Background Hepatic echinococcosis (HE) is a zoonotic disease caused by Echinococcus , and Echinococcus granulosus and E. multilocularis are the most common, causing cystic echinococcosis (CE) and alveolar echinococcosis (AE), respectively.

Case Report: Amphotericin B and Mefloquine as a Salvage Treatment of Alveolar Echinococcosis.
Alveolar echinococcosis is an emerging zoonotic disease caused by the parasite Echinococcus multilocularis. Most patients are diagnosed at a late stage, when lifelong treatment with benzimidazoles is required to stop disease progression.

Dog Ownership and Risk for Alveolar Echinococcosis, Germany
Human alveolar echinococcosis is caused by the parasite Echinococcus multilocularis, and dog ownership has been identified as a risk factor. We sought to specify the factors of dog ownership underlying this risk by conducting a case–control study among ...

Stage-Oriented CT Classification and Intermodal Evolution Model in Hepatic Alveolar Echinococcosis
Background Alveolar echinococcosis (AE) is one of the most dangerous human parasitoses. The main site of disease manifestation is the liver (about 98 %).

Purpose Hepatic alveolar echinococcosis (HAE) of the metastasis-like pattern, according to the Echinococcus Ulm classification, is usually discovered as an incidental finding, and the diagnostic differentiation from “true metastases” is difficult.

Morphological Characteristics of Alveolar and Cystic Echinococcosis Lesions in Human Liver and Bone
Among echinococcoses diseases of human interest, two have a global public health impact: cystic and alveolar echinococcosis caused by Echinococcus granulosus sensu lato and Echinococcus multilocularis, respectively. Cystic and alveolar echinococcosis are

Objectives: Since the change in the millennium, an increase in cases of alveolar echinococcosis (AE) has been observed in endemic European countries. Previous studies indicate that a significant proportion of the new AE cases have an immunosuppression ...
