Echinococcosis mimicking liver malignancy

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

INTRODUCTION: Human Alveolar Echinococcosis – Alveolar Hydatid disease (AE) is an omitted zoonoticinfection presenting with focal liver lesions. Cause of AE is a larval stage of Echinococcus multilocularistapeworms.CASE PRESENTATION: In this report an extraordinary case of a 38 year-old female examined due to 2 livertumors and 2 pulmonary nodules is described. The patient underwent pulmonary and liver surgery forsuspected advanced cholangiocellular carcinoma and surprisingly AE was found.DISCUSSION: Distinguishing intrahepatic AE from other focal liver lesion can be complicated and in manycases is diagnosed incorrectly as intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma or other liver malignancy.CONCLUSION: AE is a rare but potentially fatal parasitic infection primarily affecting liver, although itcan metastasise to lung, brain and other organs. The diagnosis and treatment can be difficult and clinicalmisinterpretation as malignancy is not rare. The principal treatment of AE is surgery accompanied withchemotherapy.
