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.

Testing non‐lethal techniques for endoparasite detection and sex determination in pumpkinseed sunfish (Lepomis gibbosus)

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Developing non‐lethal techniques to estimate parasite infection is critical for studying disease ecology in wild animals. We tested the effectiveness of coelomic ultrasonographic examination and plasma enzyme markers to detect liver infection with bass tapeworms Proteocephalus ambloplitis (Leidy 1887) as well as the effectiveness of ultrasound

Hydatid Cyst of Thyroid Gland: A Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 13, Issue 4, April 2025.
ABSTRACT Hydatid cysts in the thyroid gland are extremely rare, even in endemic areas. A 64‐year‐old male presented with a painless swelling on the left side of the thyroid swelling for 2 years. Ultrasonography revealed a large multiloculated anechoic lesion while fine needle aspiration cytology yielded clear watery to granular fluid containing ...
