Unexplained subcutaneous swelling: Keep echinococcosis in mind! Report of two primary extrahepatic subcutaneous echinococcosis cases and literature review.

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases
Alveolar and cystic echinococcoses (AE and CE) are parasitic zoonoses, mainly affecting the liver. Primary extrahepatic localizations remain rare and are difficult to diagnose.

Sectional Imaging for Alveolar Echinococcosis

Visceral Medicine
Background: Alveolar echinococcosis (AE) is a rare but potentially life-threatening parasitic disease caused by the larval stage of Echinococcus multilocularis, primarily affecting the liver with infiltrative, tumor-like growth. Sectional imaging plays a pivotal role in diagnosis, staging, and treatment planning.

Fatal alveolar echinococcosis of the lumbar spine

, 2013
For the last 10 years, the southern part of Belgium has been recognized as a low-risk area of endemicity for alveolar echinococcosis. This infection, caused by Echinococcus multilocularis, usually induces a severe liver condition and can sometimes spread

Pulmonary diffuse calcified multiple nodules in alveolar echinococcosis [PDF]

Alveolar echinococcosis is a potentially life-threatening parasitic disease primarily involving the liver caused by echinococcus multilocularis. Alveolar echinococcosis shows tumor-like growth that can lead to infiltration of neighboring organs.
