Hepatic hydatid disease

Hepatic hydatid disease, also known as hepatic hydatid disease, is a common parasitic disease in livestock areas. It is a parasitic disease caused by the cystic larvae (echinococcus) of canine tapeworm (echinococcus) in the liver. The disease is caused by E. granulosus, E. multilocularis or E. alveolaris. There are two types of hepatic hydatid disease: one is unicellular hydatid disease (i.e. hydatid cyst) caused by Echinococcus granulosus egg infection; the other is multilocular or vesicular spinous Follicular echinococcus disease or follicular hepatic echinococcus disease caused by coccidia infection. More common clinical unilateral hydatid disease. Most popular in northwest China, Inner Mongolia, western Sichuan and other livestock areas.
