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.

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.

Management of hepatic echinococcosis in pregnancy
International Journal of Gynecology & Obstetrics, 2010A 29-year-old woman presented with left flank pain at 20 weeks of pregnancy. She had lived in Turkey during her childhood. Ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging revealed 3 partially calcified hepatic cysts with a maximum diameter of 9.6 cm and echinococcus multilocularis was confirmed serologically.

[Hepatic alveolar echinococcosis].
La Revue du praticien, 1991Alveolar echinococcosis (AE) is an uncommon parasitic disease that is caused by the intrahepatic growth of Echinococcus multilocularis larvae. Eastern France is endemic for AE. A wild cycle allows the parasite to subsist in nature. The adult worm develops in the small intestine of foxes.

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.

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.

[Hepatic echinococcosis. Surgical treatment].
Minerva chirurgica, 1979After some general observations on liver echinococcosis (epidemiology, liver topographic anatomy, diagnostics), various surgical techniques proposed for the treatment of this disease are described. Case series observed from 1967 to 1978 and the technique of choice, cystotomy with partial cysto-resection, are presented.

[Treatment concepts for hepatic echinococcosis].
Chirurgie (Heidelberg, Germany), 2023The incidence of both cystic (CE) and alveolar echinococcosis (AE) is increasing in Germany. The CE can often be managed with drug treatment and interventional strategies. In contrast, AE shows characteristics of a malignant disease with a high morbidity and mortality.
