Can contrast-enhanced ultrasound differentiate the type of hepatic echinococcosis: cystic echinococcosis or alveolar echinococcosis? [PDF]

Parasites & Vectors, 2023
Background Hepatic echinococcosis (HE) is a zoonotic disease caused by Echinococcus, and Echinococcus granulosus and E. multilocularis are the most common, causing cystic echinococcosis (CE) and alveolar echinococcosis (AE), respectively.

Comparison of ultrasonographic features between two types of hepatic echinococcosis and hepatoblastoma in children [PDF]

Frontiers in Pediatrics
IntroductionThe prevalence of hepatic alveolar echinococcosis (AE) and cystic echinococcosis (CE) is notably high among children in western China, with the mortality rate for untreated children potentially reaching up to 90%. Meanwhile, hepatoblastoma is

Role of the radiologist in the diagnosis and management of the two forms of hepatic echinococcosis [PDF]

Insights into Imaging, 2022
Echinococcosis is a parasitic disease caused by two zoonotic tapeworms (cestodes) of the Echinocococcus genus. It can be classified as either alveolar or cystic echinococcosis.

Cardiac echinococcosis secondary to hepatic echinococcosis: a rare case report. [PDF]

Cardiovasc Diagn Ther, 2022
Cystic echinococcosis (CE) is a zoonotic parasitic infection, which is very rare in developed countries. It can affect all internal organs, while cardiac echinococcosis is extremely rare, especially in children. Slowly enlarging hydatid cyst usually remains asymptomatic until the size or space occupying effects the involved organ and induces symptoms ...

Severe hypernatremia in children after surgical resection of hepatic echinococcosis: a rare and potentially fatal complication [PDF]

BMC Pediatrics, 2021
Background Using effective scolicidal agents intraoperatively is essential to lessen the recurrence rate of hepatic echinococcosis. However, severe hypernatremia may occur after hypertonic saline (HS) has been applied as the scolicidal agent.

Hepatic echinococcosis: A review. [PDF]

Ann Med Surg (Lond), 2018
Cystic echinococcosis (CE) is a widely endemic helminthic disease caused by infection with metacestodes (larval stage) of the Echinococcus granulosus tapeworm and transmitted by dogs. E. granulosus are common parasites in certain parts of the world, and are present on every continent with the exception of Antarctica.
