Common sociocultural behavior and common hygienic habits may lead lead to the existence of parasites in many people living in the same environment. The main objective of this study was to investigate the incidence of disease in individuals sharing the same living space.
A total of 102 individuals with no previous diagnosis of hydatid cyst and sharing the same living space with 40 patients and who were operated on between 2007 and 2011 were included in the study. All the patients were evaluated with chest radiography, abdominal ultrasonography and serological tests.
Thirteen (12.74%) of the 102 individuals who were screened for hydatid cyst were found to have hydatidosis. One patient with pulmonary hydatid had false negative results in serological assays. IHA was negative in two patients, one with hepatic and splenic hydatid cyst, and one with isolated hepatic hydatid cyst; the diagnosis was confirmed by a positive ELISA in both cases.
This study has aimed to demonstrate the risk of developing hydatid cyst in individuals sharing the same living space as patients with hydatid cysts, unlike the screening tests performed in endemic areas. A rate of 12.74% is considerable when applied to larger populations.
常见的社会文化行为和卫生习惯可能导致许多生活在同一环境中的人感染寄生虫。本研究的主要目的是调查居住在同一生活空间的个体的疾病发病率。
本研究纳入了102名此前未被诊断为包虫囊肿、与40名患者居住在同一生活空间且在2007年至2011年期间接受手术的个体。所有患者均接受了胸部X线检查、腹部超声检查和血清学检测。
在接受包虫囊肿筛查的102名个体中，有13名（12.74%）被发现患有包虫病。一名肺包虫病患者血清学检测结果为假阴性。两名患者间接血凝试验（IHA）为阴性，一名患有肝脾包虫囊肿，一名患有孤立性肝包虫囊肿；两例诊断均通过酶联免疫吸附测定（ELISA）阳性得以证实。
本研究旨在证明与包虫囊肿患者居住在同一生活空间的个体发生包虫囊肿的风险，这与在流行地区进行的筛查试验不同。当应用于更大的人群时，12.74%的发病率相当可观。
