Alveolar echinococcosis cases diagnosed histopathologically in 2002, 2006, 2007, and 2009 in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia were reconfirmed by evaluating the cytochrome c oxidase subunit I gene of mitochondrial DNA. The most recent three cases using paraffin-embedded and ethanol-fixed specimens revealed that one was of the "Asian" haplotype, whereas two others were of the "Inner Mongolian" type. All patients were born in the western provinces of Mongolia, they never resided outside of Mongolia, and they were given a preliminary diagnosis of malignant hepatic tumor or abscess. The most recent two cases were also confirmed serologically to be active alveolar echinococcosis.
2002、2006、2007 和 2009 年在蒙古乌兰巴托通过组织病理学诊断的肺包虫病病例，通过评估线粒体 DNA 的细胞色素 c 氧化酶亚单位 I 基因进行了重新确认。最近的三个使用石蜡包埋和乙醇固定标本的病例显示，一个是“亚洲”单倍型，而另外两个是“内蒙古”型。所有患者均出生于蒙古西部省份，从未在蒙古境外居住过，初步诊断为恶性肝肿瘤或脓肿。最近的两个病例也通过血清学确认是活动性肺包虫病。
