Parasites Cases: Echinococcosis - Part 7

I've done several posts before on Echinococcosis -- very nasty parasites that can cause hydatis disease and other life-threatening problems. This parasite infection seems to be more prevalent in Europe (according to a study that I posted), but it isn't off limits to those in the States. Echincoccosis is #1 in my book; tapeworm infections follow closely behind along with ascaris. Echincoccosis seem to have no limits on their invasive nature; whereas, some parasites have favorite locations. Below are some other unusual cases that were reported on about these parasites.

Pelvic echinococcus

Abstract: An unusual case of pelvic echinococcus cyst is presented, appearing initially on transvaginal ultrasound as a pelvic mass mimicking a multicystic ovary. A similar mass in the liver raised preoperatively the suspicion of echinococcosis, making an open surgical procedure preferable to laparoscopy. Diagnosis was confirmed pathologically after removal of the cyst. Though their location in the pelvis is rare, echinococcal cysts should be considered in the differential diagnosis of pelvic masses, especially in patients from endemic areas. Evaluation of previous medical history and current symptoms, together with the ultrasonographic findings, is important for correct diagnosis and appropriate management.

^{Hydatid disease is an endemic zoonosis caused by the cestode Echinococcus granulosus. The most common affected organs are the liver and the lungs. Echinococcal cyst located in the subcutaneous tissue constitutes an extremely rare manifestation of the hydatid disease. Here we present a case report with a cystic mass in the subcutaneous tissue of the left gluteal area, diagnosed as being a hydatid cyst.

^{Abstract Solitary echinococcal cysts of the seminal vesicles are very uncommon. The use of ultrasonography, computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging aids considerably in the differential diagnosis. Surgical removal of pelvic echinococcal cysts should be performed with great caution to avoid accidental puncture and parasite spillage in the retroperitoneal space. We report on a case of a male patient presenting with urinary retention owing to a large hydatid cyst of the seminal vesicles. The literature regarding this rare clinical entityis also reviewed.}
