Abstract
The aim of this presentation is to show the high informative value of ultrasonography as the first method of choice in the diagnosis of atypical extra-hepatic forms of echoconcosis. Echinococcosis is zooanthroponosis and is most commonly caused by the larval form of E. granulosus. Echinococcal cysts develop, most commonly in the human liver and second - in the lung. Rare primary localization is echinococcus cysts of greater omentum and spleen. Ultrasonography is first method of ch?ice for diagnostic. The main clinical and laboratory diagnostic methods are immunoelectrophoresis and serological evidence of echinococcosis by ELISA. Timely surgical treatment give it a chance to cure. The use of post-operative antiparasitic chemoprophylaxis and therapy is recommended.
