Large Symptomatic Splenic Pseudocyst: Case Report of a Rare Entity

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Large symptomatic splenic pseudocysts, though rare, should be considered in patients with persistent left upper abdominal pain as we report in our case. Imaging enables diagnosis, and laparoscopic spleen‐preserving cyst decompression and deroofing provide a safe, effective treatment, relieving symptoms while maintaining splenic function and ...

In vitro metacestodicidal activities of genistein and other isoflavones against Echinococcus multilocularis and Echinococcus granulosus

, 2006
Echinococcus multilocularis and Echinococcus granulosus metacestode infections in humans cause alveolar echinococcosis and cystic echinococcosis, respectively, in which metacestode development in visceral organs often results in particular organ failure.

Hydatid Cyst of the Thyroid Gland With Concurrent Hepatic Involvement: A Rare Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Hydatidosis, caused by Echinococcus granulosus, most commonly affects the liver and lungs, while thyroid involvement is exceptionally rare and can mimic other cystic thyroid lesions. We report a 40‐year‐old woman with no history of animal exposure who presented with anterior neck swelling, odynophagia, and abdominal discomfort. She had a prior

Bioinformatics‐Driven Design of Fusion Recombinant Protein (EgFABP1‐EgTeg) for Enhanced Immunodiagnosis of Hydatid Cysts

Immunity, Inflammation and Disease, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Hydatid cyst disease is caused by the parasite Echinococcus and poses significant health concerns worldwide. Due to the lack of early symptoms and limited diagnostic tools, researchers aim to design a more specific and sensitive antigen. The study focuses on developing a recombinant multi‐epitope antigen using two parasite proteins (

Is It Time to Abandon the Absolute Contraindication to FNAC in Pulmonary Hydatid Cysts? A Case Report and Literature Review

Respirology Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
This report challenges the historical belief that fine‐needle aspiration (FNAC) is absolutely contraindicated in suspected pulmonary hydatid cysts. By a case of successful diagnosis without anaphylaxis and a systematic review of the literature, we show that with modern image guidance and precautions, the risk may be lower than traditionally thought. It
