“…In Muğla, twenty-one out of 9,985 (0.21%) cattle were found to have been infected with hydatid cysts in 2019. Cumulatively, the direct and indirect economic loss created by hydatid cyst infections in the province of Muğla was 134,451 TL ($22,296) (Acıoz et al, 2021). In Konya, the livers of 810 (1.97%) sheep were found to be infected with hydatid cysts throughout the period of a study.…”

This study aimed to determine the prevalence of hydatid cysts, an infection caused by Echinococcus granulosus, in cattle and estimate the economic losses caused by this infection. The material of the study (weight values of 2,813 cattle livers) was obtained from a private slaughterhouse in Afyonkarahisar between January and June 2018. Cattle livers were first weighed as a whole. As a result of the macroscopic examination, the liver parts with infection were cut, and their weight (kg) was determined. Hydatid cysts were found in a total of 614 (21.83%) cattle livers. The total weight of cattle liver that was examined in the study was 20,357.8 kg, and the total weight of infected cattle liver was 2,064.8 kg (10.14%). The economic loss due to infected livers was calculated as 79,556.74 TRY ($13,981.85). Considering the 2019 cattle slaughter data in Türkiye, the total amount of economic loss due to infected livers was estimated as 102,742,642.10 TRY ($18,056,703.36).

“…The definitive host for the cycle is the dog; sheep, cattle and horses are the intermediate host, while man is the accidental host (Botezatu et al, 2018;Unal et al, 2001). Parasite circulates in the blood in larval form and cyst formation occurs in the internal tissues, in this patient, the axilla (Acıoz et al, 2021). The cyst phase is when the organism can be interpreted.…”

Hydatid disease is induced most commonly due to infestation of the parasitic organism, Echinococcus granulosus. Lack of personal and communal hygiene increases the chances of contracting this infection. Zoonotic organisms are typically seen in the liver; they occasionally move to the brain, lungs and kidneys; they are seldom found in muscle, eye, vagina, bone or heart. A 36year-old male patient was shown predominantly with right axillary swelling for three months which was painless and gradually progressive in nature. On investigations by ultrasonography (USG) and fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC), it was diagnosed as a case of a hydatid cyst of muscle. The infection was treated with the administration of antiparasitic therapy combined with total cystectomy and instilled scolicidal agents with follow-up monitoring with the surgeons.

“…The lowest prevalence of hydatid cyst was found in Muğla province ( Acıöz et al, 2021 ) (0.21 %) and its highest prevalence was observed in Erzurum province (70.91 %) in Turkey ( Arslan & Umur, 1997 ). Concerning the regions, the lowest prevalence of hydatid cyst was observed in Southeastern Anatolia Region (0.007 %), and the highest was in the Central Anatolia Region (0.164 %).…”

Summary Hydatidosis is a parasitic zoonotic disease that negatively affects human and animal health and causes economic losses due to slaughter condemnation and risk to public health in developing countries. This study aims to determine the prevalence of Hydatidosis among slaughtered livestock in different regions of Turkey and calculate the financial losses associated with the zoonosis. For this purpose, livestock slaughter records from the livestock information system in 2020 were considered and direct and indirect economic losses were estimated. The study determined the prevalence of hydatidosis in small ruminants (0.03%) and cattle (0.0124%) and an average of 0.007% of the total number of livestock slaughtered during the period under study were infected with hydatid cysts. The direct and indirect economic losses were estimated at $98.558 and $466.891, respectively. The total monetary loss due to Hydatidosis in Turkey in the year 2020 was estimated at $565.448. In conclusion, significant monetary losses due to Hydatidosis in slaughtered livestock is still an important economic issue to livestock traders in Turkey.
