MRI findings of hepatic alveolar echinococcosis

Clinical Imaging, 2003
Diagnosis 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.

Giant hepatic alveolar echinococcosis in an adult

The American Journal of Surgery, 2009
Hepatic 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, 2000
The 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, 1991
Hepatic 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.

Diagnosis and treatment of Hepatic echinococcosis: an overview

Scandinavian Journal of Gastroenterology, 2004
Surgery 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.

Management of hepatic echinococcosis in Southern California

The American Journal of Surgery, 1986
In 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.

Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography in hepatic alveolar echinococcosis

Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, 2009
AbstractBackground and Aim:  Hepatic alveolar echinococcosis (HAE) involves both the vascular and biliary structures of the liver. Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is said to be an alternative for the diagnosis and treatment of biliary complications of HAE.

Colloid liver SPECT of hepatic alveolar echinococcosis

Annals of Nuclear Medicine, 1993
Seventy-one-year-old man had a liver mass. He lived in Hokkaido, where there is an epidemic of hydatic disease. Abdominal US image showed an echogenic mass. CT revealed a low density mass with an unclear margin. A 99mTc-Sulfur colloid liver SPECT study was performed to detect the liver mass. The SPECT scan was done after intravenous administration of 5
