#Echinococcus induces production of parasite-specific IgE antibodies. Sudden rupture of an echinococcal cyst can cause anaphylactic reaction due to rapid release of large quantities of helminth antigens. Treatment: albendazole.

#echinococcus granulosus tapeworm infection of dogs which utilizes sheep, goats as intermediate hosts. Humans are accidental hosts that can become infected with larval stage after ingestion of eggs in food or water contaminated w/ dog feces

ruptured hepatic cyst due to #Echinococcus granulosus, & anaphylactic response to the released cyst contents.

Living with Echinococcus multilocularis and golden jackal Coexistence of Canine and Vulpine hosts of Echinococcus multilocularis parasite results in a high risk of human alveolar echinococcosis in hot-spots

In the epidemiology 😷🧪 of human alveolar echinococcosis, hotspots can develop in areas where the red fox 🦊 and the golden jackal 🐺 coexist. Our research is explained simply on Substack: substack.com/@epizootica/...

Relevant data on the epidemiology 🧪😷 of human alveolar echinococcosis in Europe. The 1st two decades of Echinococcus multilocularis 🪱🧪 in Hungary🇭🇺 Besides environmental factors, poor regional economic development is confirmed as a driver of HAE.
