Current status of diagnosis and treatment of hepatic echinococcosis

World Journal of Hepatology, 2016
Echinococcus granulosus (E. granulosus) and Echinococcus multilocularis (E. multilocularis) infections are the most common parasitic diseases that affect the liver. The disease course is typically slow and the patients tend to remain asymptomatic for many years. Often the diagnosis is incidental.

Multimodal Treatment of a Spontaneously Ruptured Echinococcus Cyst of the Spleen and Its Complications

Case Reports in Gastrointestinal Medicine, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Introduction: Cystic echinococcosis, also known as hydatid cyst, is a parasitic infection of mammals that can affect any organ. Although the diagnosis of primary splenic echinococcosis is challenging, especially in nonendemic areas, it can be life‐saving because an anaphylactic shock may occur when the cyst ruptures.

Echinococcus granulosus cyst fluid enhances epithelial - mesenchymal transition [PDF]

, 2018
Aims Cystic Echinococcosis is characterised by fluid filled hydatid cysts in the liver and lungs. The cysts are surrounded by a host fibrous layer (the pericyst) which acts to isolate the parasite from surrounding tissues.

Primary Posterior Neck Hydatid Cyst: A Case Report and Review of the Literature

Case Reports in Otolaryngology, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Introduction: Hydatid cyst disease is an endemic parasitic infection caused by Echinococcus granulosus. Hydatid cysts occur mainly in the liver and lungs and are rare in the head and neck region, even in endemic areas. Due to their nonspecific clinical manifestations, diagnostic challenges are encountered in such atypical presentations.
