Cystic echinococcocis (CE) is a zoonotic infection caused by metacestod form of Echinococcus granulosus. In this study, 91 patients with CE were revealed according to their gender, age, symptoms, cyst localization and size, and also to their preoperative serologic analysis results. These patients were recruited in Pathology Department of Inonu University, School of Medicine, Turgut Ozal Medical Center between January 2002 and December 2005. They had already undergone surgery following the preliminary diagnosis of CE and were diagnosed definitively after histopathological analysis. Thirty-seven of them were female (41%) and the rest were male (n=54, 59%). Mean age was 36.24 ± 20.35 (range: 4-80 years). Lung and liver were the most common localizations for CE cysts (n=67, 73.63%). Fifty patients' preoperative serological analysis (IHA) were already available (55%) and 46 of them (92%) were positive. Since histopathological definitive diagnosis was CE, false negative result rate was assessed as 8%. Intraabdominal CE cyst localization was found related with bigger cyst size and multiple organ involvement. Symptom duration was correlated with cyst size (p < 0.05; r < sup > 2 < /sup > =0.09). IHA results were failed to be found related with clinical features of the cysts.
