Treatment of Echinococcus granulosus Cysts

Scandinavian Journal of Infectious Diseases, 1993
dOSL,\. The major ohstack in the treatment of hydntid diseases in Turkey is the lack of patient compliance. Needless to say. the presence of only I00 mg tablet\ of mebendazole in Turkey and thc difficulty of swallowing 60 to 120 tablets at one time every day contrihutcs to the outcome.

BIOLOGY AND SPECIATION OF ECHINOCOCCUS GRANULOSUS†

Australian Veterinary Journal, 1979
SUMMARY: The biology of Echinococcus granulosus is reviewed and attention given to recent advances in our understanding of this parasite. In particular, studies on the parasite within the definitive host, an area which has been neglected in the past, have demonstrated our lack of knowledge concerning the cytodifferentiation of the adult cestode during

Comment on the status of Echinococcus granulosus in the UK

Parasitology Today, 1989
Echinococcus granulosus is composed of a complex of strains, the status of which has caused controversy and doubt. All have different characteristics which have arisen from animal husbandry practices, resulting in isolation and restriction of gene flow, and/or from the reproductive characteristics of the organisms.

Genetic typing of Echinococcus granulosus in Romania

Parasitology Research, 2005
In Romania, cystic echinococcosis is endemic and affects, besides humans, various animal species including sheep, cattle, and swine. As yet, no molecular-genetic typing has been carried out to clearly identify the putative strains being transmitted there.

Resistance to Echinococcus granulosus Infection in Lambs

The Journal of Parasitology, 1981
A high level of resistance of oral infection with Echinococcus granulosus eggs was stimulated in lambs by two or more subcutaneous injections of oncospheres given 14 days apart. The degree of resistance was significantly higher than that resulting from a single injection.

Development and morphological variability of Echinococcus granulosus

Parasitology Research, 1998
Characteristics are presented of Echinococcus granulosus strobila from dogs experimentally infected with protoscolices from a single cyst isolated from the liver of a domestic pig in a central Slovakian district. Adult cestodes are characterized mainly by 28-32 hooks highly variable in shape and size; 26-51 testes situated mostly throughout the ...

Echinococcus granulosus in the wolf in Italy.

Parassitologia, 2004
During the period 1987-1999, 119 wolf cadavers were examined and checked for the presence of Echinococcus granulosus. All the animals were retrieved along the whole Apennines range of distribution of the species in Italy and most of them were illegally killed. Eighteen wolves resulted positive (15%). The mean intensity was 697.5. The force of infection

Echinococcus granulosus genotypes in Iran.

Gastroenterology and hepatology from bed to bench, 2014
Hydatidosis, caused by Echinococcus granulosus is one of the most important zoonotic diseases, throughout most parts of the world. Hydatidosis is endemic in Iran and responsible for approximately 1% of admission to surgical wards. There are extensive genetic variations within E.

How Echinococcus granulosus Deals with Complement

Parasitology Today, 2000
Here, Ana Mar a Ferreira and colleagues discuss the interplay between the larval stages of Echinococcus granulosus and an important effector arm of immunity: the host complement system. During early infection, the parasite activates complement, and hence complement-dependent inflammatory responses. However, on differentiation into the hydatid cyst, the
