The parasite Echinococcus multilocularis which causes alveolar hydatid disease is distinct in both larval form and host specificity from the more common E granulosus . Surgical treatment of E multilocularis infestation is usually impossible. The budding alveolar cysts infiltrate the liver diffusely rather than forming a solitary cyst as does E ...

Since 1936, 13 patients (9 men and 4 women) had hydatid cyst disease at the Lahey Clinic. The cysts involved the liver in 11 patients, the spleen in 2 and the brain in 1 patient. All patients had surgery; operations were marsupialization, resection of cyst, splenectomy or craniotomy.

Genitourinary involvement of the hydatid disease is mainly caused by Echinococcus granulosus; however, renal, ureteral, and testicular echinococcosis caused by echinococcus multilocularis also have been reported [1, 2]. Through their life cycle, the eggs of the parasite hatch in the gut into embryos or larvae which are also called oncospheres.

Musculoskeletal Hydatid Disease
Seminars in Musculoskeletal Radiology, 2011Hydatid disease is an infectious disease caused by the larval stage of the parasitic tapeworm Echinococcosis granulosus. Its distribution is worldwide. Although hydatid disease can develop in almost any part of the body, it is most commonly found in the liver and lung. Musculoskeletal involvement is rare.

SUMMARY Although hydatid disease of the liver and lungs is common in South Asia, involvement of the brain is relatively rare. Two cases of cerebral echinococcosis are presented. One case involved the brain, kidney, heart and spleen. The case is unusual because of the multiplicity of intracranial lesions and sparing of the liver and lungs.

Hydatid disease, also known as Echinococcosis is a zoonosis caused by the larval stage of Echinococcus. The human cystic variant primarily affects liver and lungs. The pelvic location of the disease is a rare finding usually secondary to a ruptured liver cyst, although it may also appear as a primary lesion affecting the genital organs.

A case of pulmonary hydatid disease with myopathy, which has not previously been described as a feature of hydatidosis, is reported. The myopathy resolved during high dose mebendazole therapy.

Summary Hydatid disease is caused by the larval form of Taenia echinococcus (Echinococcus granulosus) in humans, the most common sites being the liver and the lungs. Involvement of the kidneys is uncommon and can be asymptomatic for long periods.

Hydatid disease is common in many parts of the world (Deve, 1949; Heyat et al, 1971) and is endemic in Spain (De Diego et al, 1982). At least three species of Echinococcus infect people: cystic hydatid disease is caused by E. granulosus; alveolar hydatid disease is caused by E.

Echinococcus infestation is endemic in certain parts of the world. Extrahepatic dissemination of the disease is rare. Successful management of these patients and possible routes for abdominopelvic dissemination of the disease are discussed.
