Abstract

We present some historical, epidemiological, statistical data for heart echinococcosis and concomitant lesions of different organs. The diagnosis of heart echinococcosis is based on revealing of the cyst and its identification with echinococcus. The value of different diagnostic methods is shown. A surgical procedure in patients with heart echinococcosis depends on the localization of the cysts (manipulations under cardiopulmonary bypass or off-pump procedure). We present some additional techniques for prophylaxis of recurrence.
