Human alveolar echinococcosis in Slovenia [PDF]

Clinical Microbiology and Infection, 2007
Between January 2001 and December 2005, 1263 patients suspected of having echinococcosis were screened serologically by indirect haemagglutination assay (IHA). IHA-positive patient sera were then retested by western blot for confirmation and differentiation between Echinococcus granulosus and Echinococcus multilocularis infection.

eComment. Alveolar echinococcosis of the lung [PDF]

Interactive CardioVascular and Thoracic Surgery, 2013
We read with great interest Karaman et al.'s rare case concerning lung infection with Echinococcus alveolaris [1]. We would like to highlight two points concerning the conservative treatment and imaging characteristics of alveolar echinococcosis (AE). AE is a severe disease, with a mortality of over 90% in untreated patients.
