An exceptional case of peritoneal cystic echinococcosis in a domestic cat in Australia

Australian Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
A case of peritoneal cystic echinococcosis (CE) in a domestic cat was reported from Queensland, Australia. Physical examination of the cat indicated a large, distended abdomen, which when palpated appeared to be fluid‐filled. Ultrasonography showed numerous cysts with hyperechoic walls and anechoic contents within the cat's abdominal cavity.

Multiple Giant Cerebral Hydatid Cysts in Pediatrics

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 13, Issue 4, April 2025.
ABSTRACT In Ethiopia, although multiple giant cerebral hydatid cysts are rare, rural children in close contact with dogs remain at risk. Diagnosis requires clinical suspicion and advanced imaging. Dowling hydrodissection allows intact cyst removal. Preoperative anthelmintics minimize allergic risks.
