Research advances in peripheral vascular invasion of hepatic alveolar echinococcosis / 临床肝胆病杂志

ABSTRACT

Alveolar echinococcosis proliferates in the form of chronic infiltration and has no obvious symptoms and signs in the early stage, and when attending the hospital, some patients already have one or more complications and invasion of important intrahepatic vessels and bile ducts. The research on peripheral vascular invasion of alveolar echinococcosis may help to determine the best individualized treatment and thus improve the cure rate and prognosis of patients. This article reviews the pathological mechanism, clinical manifestations, imaging, clinical classification, and treatment of alveolar echinococcosis.
