Abstract
Echinococcus is a zoonosis, parasitic disease, caused by echinococcus granulosus, E. multilocolaris, E. Vogeli and E. oligarthus. The most frequent at humans is a cystic form of the disease caused by E. granulosus, and rarely the alveolar one caused by E. multilocolaris seu alveolaris. It can affect all the organs and tissues. The most affected ones are: liver (70- 80%) and lungs (10-25%), while rarely, at 5% it can be found in spleen, kidneys, brain, heart, pancreas, mussels and skeleton. The only secure treatment of the primary echinococcosis is the surgical one. It should start immediately after the diagnosis is set in order to avoid complications which follow echinococcosis. Several surgical methods are used in practice for live echinococcus treatment: partial pericystectomia, total cystopericystectomia and liver resection. Aim of the work is to show the importance of the echinococcus cyst of liver and treatment methods. The patient presented in the work is Dj.G., female, register number of the disease history 355/14.05.2007., 61 years old, hospitalized at Surgical Clinic because of the surgery of echinococcus cyst on the left liver lobe. Diagnosis was set by abdomen USG, CT of the abdomen, and laboratory analyses. During the surgery, we found a big echinococcus cyst localized in the second and third segment of liver, so we did a liver resection as a bisegmetectomia with total ekstirpacija of the cyst. Postoperative flow passed normally and the patient
was on the eight postoperative day sent to further home care in a generally and locally good state.
