Alveolar and neotropical echinococcosis
The urgency of the problem of human alveolar and neotropic echinococcosis is due to polymorphism and the severity of clinical manifestations. The purpose and result of the work is to summarize the data available in the literature on the etiology ...

Serodiagnosis of Echinococcus spp. infection: explorative selection of diagnostic antigens by peptide microarray [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Production of native antigens for serodiagnosis of helminthic infections is laborious and hampered by batch-to-batch variation. For serodiagnosis of echinococcosis, especially cystic disease, most screening tests rely on crude or purified ...

Echinococcosis on the Tibetan Plateau [PDF]
The Tibetan plateau of western China has been shown to have a very high prevalence of human cystic echinococcosis (CE) caused by Echinococcus granulosus and human alveolar echinococcosis (AE) caused by Echinococcus multilocularis, with the domestic ...

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

Summary: Background: Ultrasonography is the most widely used technique to diagnose echinococcosis; however, challenges in using this technique and the demand on medical resources, especially in low-income or remote areas, can delay diagnosis.

Alveolar echinococcosis is a much-feared parasitic zoonosis caused by the larval stage of Echinococcus multilocularis. Mainland Norway is free from infection, but alveolar echinococcosis is, on rare occasions, imported from endemic regions. Those infected develop slow-growing, multicystic tumours that are clinically and radiologically reminiscent of ...
