“…Laboratory examination: a-Urine by Nucleopore test (Abo-Madyan et al, 2004), b-Stool by formal ether sedimentation (Garcia and Bruckner, 1988) and Kato thick smear (Katz et al, 1972), c-CBC for eosinophilia, liver and kidney function tests, d-Sputum examination for hydatid sand in pulmonary cystic hydatidosis (Oztek et al, 1997) and e-Venous blood to separate sera for detection of antibodies against E. granulosus using two commercial available serological tests: IHAT by using echinococcosis kit (Fumouze Diagnostics, France) according to the instruction of manufacturer and ELISA-IgG with anti-human IgG-alkaline phosphatase conjugate (Abcam, USA). Sensitized wells are provided as breakable strips for the economical assay of small series of samples.…”

A cross sectional study compared the clinical features of the pulmonary and hepatic hydatid cysts in children and adults and evaluated IHAT and ELISA techniques in diagnosis. The results showed that the patients ages were 5-14 years (10.6±3.7) in children and 16-75 years (32.2±14) in adults, patients 34 (75.5%) had liver cysts, 25 (55.5%) had pulmonary cysts and 7 (15.5%) had both liver and lung cysts. In hepatic hydatidosis, 7/34 (20.5%) cases were asymptomatic while others showed variable clinical manifestations. The commonest symptom was localized right hypochondrial pain in 13 (38.2%) and the least one was jaundice in 4 (11.7%). The commonest sign was abdominal masses on the right hypochondrium in 88.2% and the least one was ascites in 5.8%.The commonest symptom of pulmonary hydatidosis was chest pain in 8 (34.7%) followed by cough and hemoptysis on 4 (17.3%) and the least one was cough and fever (8.6%).Pulmonary hydatid cysts in children were significantly higher in males (17.3%) than females (4.3%), but without significance in adults (26% in male vs. 21.7% in females). Sex difference in hydatid cyst frequencies between adults and children was significant (P <0.05). Mixed hepatic and pulmonary cysts were less in children than in adults (14.3%vs 85.7%), with huge pulmonary cysts of 20 cm were more common in children (37.7%) than in adults (17.7%). The high sensitivity (95.5%) of ELISA-IgG recommended this test showed a dependable sero-diagnosing one.

“…VercelliRetta et al 8 reported that silver methenamine and Best's carmine stain were of special value in identifying laminated layer fragments. Oztek et al 9 found hooklets in 26 of 131 patients in Papanicolaou EA65-stained slides. Masson trichrome and darkfield microscopy revealed hooklets in 37 and 50 cases, respec- tively.…”

“…Vercelli-Retta et al [28] reported that silver methenamine and Best's carmine stain were of special value in identifying laminated layer fragments. Oztek et al [29] concluded that cytochemical stain and darkfield microscopy are useful in increasing the sensitivity of cytologic detection of hydatid elements (hooklets and laminated membrane fragments) [30]. FNAC of echinococcal cyst in about 1% of cases may cause spillage and anaphylactic shock; use of a small needle is recommended for preventing this.…”

A 60-year-old woman presented with a swelling in right paraumbilical region of one-year duration. Examination revealed a painless cystic swelling 15 × 10 cm with cough impulse. Ultrasound and CECT abdomen showed a subcutaneous cystic swelling with intramuscular extension. No other intraabdominal cystic lesions were found. Surgical exploration showed a cystic lesion adherent to peritoneum without any intraperitoneal extension. Cyst was carefully excised without any spillage. Gross specimen on opening showed multiple daughter cysts consistent with hydatid cyst, confirming the diagnosis of solitary abdominal wall hydatid cyst.
