Two cases of soft-tissues echinococcosis are presented in which the definitive diagnosis was established by identifying laminated layer remnants on fine-needle aspiration smears. Large polygonal pieces of acellular material with delicate parallel striations were seen, while neither scolices nor hooklets were found. The cases reported most likely represent the occurrence of sterile hydatid cysts. A diagnosis of echinococcosis should be considered when fragments suggestive of laminated layer are identified on smears, even in unusual sites and without evidence of hooklets and/or scolices.
本文报告了两例软组织棘球蚴病，通过细针穿刺涂片发现分层膜残留得以确诊。可见大片多边形无细胞物质，有细微平行条纹，未发现头节和小钩。报道的病例很可能代表无菌性包虫囊肿的发生。即使在不寻常部位且无小钩和/或头节证据的涂片上发现提示分层膜的碎片，也应考虑棘球蚴病的诊断。
