Pulmonary and hepatic echinococcosis in children
Pediatric Radiology, 1978Eighty children suffering from pulmonary and/or hepatic echinococcosis are reported. The epidemiological and parasitological aspects are reviewed, and the importance of the radiological signs and differential diagnosis are emphasized.

Computed tomography in hepatic echinococcosis
American Journal of Roentgenology, 1982Computed tomography (CT) was used to evaluate 50 cases of hydatid disease of the liver. It was definite in 49 cases and negative in one case. Pre- and postcontrast scans were performed. CT may reveal the exact location and extension of cysts and possible complications. However, a false-negative case was found in a hydatid cyst located in a fatty liver.

Diagnosis and treatment of Hepatic echinococcosis: an overview
Scandinavian Journal of Gastroenterology, 2004Surgery has long been considered the first-choice treatment in patients with echinococcosis of the liver. The poorly predictable outcome of older studies using mebendazole or albendazole confirmed this belief. Since the introduction of a percutaneous technique (PAIR; puncture, aspiration, injection, reaspiration) treatment policy is changing.

Giant hepatic alveolar echinococcosis in an adult
The American Journal of Surgery, 2009Hepatic alveolar echinococcosis is a serious disease that is characterized by tumor-like infiltrative growth. At present, complicated cases of the disease are few, and yet the treatment is controversial. In this article, we report a patient with a giant hepatic alveolar echinococcosis.

Hepatic alveolar echinococcosis: MRI findings
Magnetic Resonance Imaging, 2000The purpose of this study was to describe the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) appearance of hepatic alveolar echinococcosis (HAE) on T(1)-weighted, T(2)-weighted and postgadolinium images. A total of 13 lesions were demonstrated in 13 patients. All patients underwent MR examination at 1 T imager.

ERCP findings in hepatic alveolar echinococcosis
Gastrointestinal Endoscopy, 1991Hepatic alveolar echinococcosis (HAE) is a rare disease, but it is reported to be endemic in some regions of the world.s It behaves like a slow-growing tumor which infiltrates surrounding tissues. Formerly, in most cases laparotomy was needed to establish the diagnosis.

MRI findings of hepatic alveolar echinococcosis
Clinical Imaging, 2003Diagnosis of liver infestation by alveolar echinococcosis (AE) is based on serologic, sonographic and computed tomography (CT) findings. Experience with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) demonstrates that features of this disease are limited. CT and MRI findings of 14 cases with hepatic AE were compared in this report.

Management of hepatic echinococcosis in Southern California
The American Journal of Surgery, 1986In the United States, hydatid disease of the liver is being seen with increasing frequency in persons who have immigrated from endemic areas. At the University of California, Los Angeles Medical Center, 24 patients with 46 echinococcal cysts were managed over a 26 year period.

Hepatic alveolar echinococcosis.
Archives of Iranian medicine, 2015Alveolar hydatid disease is a highly malignant form of echinococcosis caused by the larvae of the cestode echinococcus multilocularis. Alveolar hydatid disease always affects the liver and can metastasise to the lung and brain. Early diagnosis and precise evaluation of the localization as well as the extent of lesions are essential for treatment.
