Alveolar echinococcosis (AE) and cystic echinococcosis (CE), caused by infection with the larval stages of Echinococcus multilocularis and E. granulosus, respectively, are of major clinical importance. Reports of infection with AE or CE are very common, but instances of simultaneous or dual infection are rare. We report on four cases with mixed AE/CE infections in the liver, diagnosed using retrospective surgical records and active community surveys in southern Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region (NHAR), PR China, a recognized hyperendemic area for echinococcosis.
泡型包虫病（AE）和囊型包虫病（CE）分别由多房棘球绦虫和细粒棘球绦虫的幼虫感染引起，具有重要的临床意义。AE或CE感染的报告很常见，但同时感染或双重感染的情况很少见。我们报告了在中国宁夏回族自治区南部（NHAR）这一公认的包虫病高度流行地区，通过回顾性手术记录和积极的社区调查诊断出的4例肝脏AE/CE混合感染病例。
