INFLUENCE OF MORPHOLOGICAL FORMS OF ECHINOCOCCUS CYSTS ON THE FREQUENCY OF RECURRENT DISEASE

Аннотация

To determine the effect of the morphological form of echinococcal cysts on the incidence of recurrence of the disease, we conducted a retrospective analysis of the operation protocols and determined that in 93 (36.9%) operated patients, the morphological structure of the cysts corresponded to modifications of echinococcus hominis, 128 (50.8%) - echinococcus veterinorum and in 31 (12.3%) - echinococcus acephalocystis. Moreover, in 47 patients with developed recurrence of the disease, 29 (61.7%) had morphological signs corresponding to echinococcus hominis, 18 (38.3%) had echinococcus veterinorum, and no recurrence was detected in those operated on with the morphological structure of the corresponding echinococcus acephalocystis. Thus, out of 93 patients operated on for liver echinococcosis with a morphological structure corresponding to the form of echinococcus hominis, 29, i.e. in 31.2%, a relapse of the disease was observed, out of 128 operated on with morphological modification of cysts of echinococcus veterinorum in 18, i.e. 14.1% also developed recurrent echinococcosis in the long term after the operation.
