Molecular diagnosis of alveolar echinococcosis in patients based on frozen and formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue samples

Parasite, 2022
Confirmed diagnosis of alveolar echinococcosis (AE) is based on pathological criteria and molecular evidence. This parasite-borne disease, caused by the cestode Echinococcus multilocularis, sparingly involves humans as a dead-end host.

Journal of Ultrasound, 2022
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.

Imaging Aspects of Hepatic Alveolar Echinococcosis: Retrospective Findings of a Surgical Center in Turkey

Pathogens, 2022
Radiologists should be aware of the findings of alveolar echinococcosis (AE) due to the diagnostic and management value of imaging. We are attempting to define the most common diagnostic imaging findings of liver AE, along with the prevalence and ...

Hepatic alveolar echinococcosis: a diagnostic challenge

Journal of the Belgian Society of Radiology, 2011
We report a case of alveolar echinococcosis involving the liver in a 61-year-old male. Alveolar echinococcosis is a rare chronic and progressive disease, which can involve mostly liver and in rare cases lung and brain.
