Description
Once the E. granulosus parasite enters the human mouth, it is carried with the bloodstream to the liver (60% of patients), lungs (20% of patients) and other organs, such as the brain (20%). Parasites form spherical, single-chambered, fluid-filled cysts that can usually be surgically removed E. granulosus cysts cause pathological changes or disorders mainly due to gradual compression due to growth or displacement of important host tissues, vessels or organs. Consequently, the extent of pathological changes varies widely depending on the location and size of the cyst, such as epigastric or chest pain.
Diagnosis of echinococcosis is based on epidemiological and clinical examination for the detection of cysts by radiography, ultrasound and CT scanning, as well as by serological methods.
