Abstract

Öz

Ekinokokkoz insanlarda Echinococcus cinsinin sestodlarının larva formlarının sebep olduğu enfeksiyon nedeniyle gelişmektedir. Tanısal çalışmalar ve tedavi yaklaşımı açısından çok yol katedilmiş olmasına rağmen, birçok çalışma halen dünya çapında ekinokokkozun ciddi bir halk sağlığı problemi teşkil ettiğini göstermektedir.
