Advances in the pharmacological treatment of hepatic alveolar echinococcosis: From laboratory to clinic [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Hepatic alveolar echinococcosis (HAE) is a zoonotic parasitic disease caused by the larvae of Echinococcus multilocularis. Because of its characteristics of diffuse infiltration and growth similar to tumors, the disability rate and mortality rate are ...
