Hepatic Alveolar Echinococcosis

Acta Radiologica, 1999
Alveolar echinococcosis is a rare parasitic disease caused by Echinococcus multilocularis and most commonly involves the liver. Early diagnosis and precise evaluation of the localisation and the extent of the lesions are essential for treatment. In this report, we present US and CT findings in a patient with hepatic alveolar echinococcosis.

Hepatic alveolar echinococcosis: MRI findings

Magnetic Resonance Imaging, 2000
The purpose of this study was to describe the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) appearance of hepatic alveolar echinococcosis (HAE) on T(1)-weighted, T(2)-weighted and postgadolinium images. A total of 13 lesions were demonstrated in 13 patients. All patients underwent MR examination at 1 T imager.

ERCP findings in hepatic alveolar echinococcosis

Gastrointestinal Endoscopy, 1991
Hepatic alveolar echinococcosis (HAE) is a rare disease, but it is reported to be endemic in some regions of the world.s It behaves like a slow-growing tumor which infiltrates surrounding tissues. Formerly, in most cases laparotomy was needed to establish the diagnosis.

MRI findings of hepatic alveolar echinococcosis

Clinical Imaging, 2003
Diagnosis of liver infestation by alveolar echinococcosis (AE) is based on serologic, sonographic and computed tomography (CT) findings. Experience with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) demonstrates that features of this disease are limited. CT and MRI findings of 14 cases with hepatic AE were compared in this report.

Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography in hepatic alveolar echinococcosis

Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, 2009
AbstractBackground and Aim:  Hepatic alveolar echinococcosis (HAE) involves both the vascular and biliary structures of the liver. Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is said to be an alternative for the diagnosis and treatment of biliary complications of HAE.

Giant hepatic alveolar echinococcosis in an adult

The American Journal of Surgery, 2009
Hepatic alveolar echinococcosis is a serious disease that is characterized by tumor-like infiltrative growth. At present, complicated cases of the disease are few, and yet the treatment is controversial. In this article, we report a patient with a giant hepatic alveolar echinococcosis.

Colloid liver SPECT of hepatic alveolar echinococcosis

Annals of Nuclear Medicine, 1993
Seventy-one-year-old man had a liver mass. He lived in Hokkaido, where there is an epidemic of hydatic disease. Abdominal US image showed an echogenic mass. CT revealed a low density mass with an unclear margin. A 99mTc-Sulfur colloid liver SPECT study was performed to detect the liver mass. The SPECT scan was done after intravenous administration of 5

[Hepatic alveolar echinococcosis].

La Revue du praticien, 1991
Alveolar echinococcosis (AE) is an uncommon parasitic disease that is caused by the intrahepatic growth of Echinococcus multilocularis larvae. Eastern France is endemic for AE. A wild cycle allows the parasite to subsist in nature. The adult worm develops in the small intestine of foxes.

Hepatic alveolar echinococcosis.

Archives of Iranian medicine, 2015
 Alveolar hydatid disease is a highly malignant form of echinococcosis caused by the larvae of the cestode echinococcus multilocularis. Alveolar hydatid disease always affects the liver and can metastasise to the lung and brain. Early diagnosis and precise evaluation of the localization as well as the extent of lesions are essential for treatment.

Simultaneous occurrence of hepatic alveolar and cystic echinococcosis

Journal of Helminthology, 2019
Abstract The co-occurrence of hepatic cystic echinococcosis (CE) and alveolar echinococcosis (AE) is extremely rare. Here, we present the clinical manifestations and treatment outcomes of three cases with co-occurring CE and AE in the liver. Computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging and 18FFluorodeoxyglucose Positron Emission Tomography ...
