- slowly enlarging echinococcal cyst generally remain asymptomatic until their expanding size or their space occupying effect in an involved organ (commonly liver and lungs) elicits symptomss
- hydatid liver disease presents with right upper quadrant pain, palpable mass in right upper quadrant or bile duct compression resulting in jaundice
- calcification is often seen on abdominal X ray and ultrasound is excellent means of demonstrating the cyst
- the most pathognomonic finding if demonstrable is that of daughter cysts within the larger cyst
- diagnostic aspiration is not usually recommended because of risk of fluid leakage resulting in either dissemination or infection or anaphylactic reaction
- treatment: Albendazole or PAIR (percutaneous aspiration, infusion of scolicidal agent and reaspiration), or pericystectomy for complicated cyst
I would like to thank Ultimate Life Clinic for reversing my father's Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). My father’s ALS condition was fast deteriorating before he started on the ALS Herbal medicine treatment from Ultimate Life Clinic. He was on the treatment for just 6 months and we never thought my father will recover so soon. He has gained some weight in the past months and he is able to walk with no support. You can reach them through there website www.ultimatelifeclinic.com
