In 1982, a research project on the prevalence of human echinococcosis in Austria was started. Within the period from 1982 to 1988, data on 188 patients with cystic (CE) and of 16 patients with alveolar (AE) echinococcosis were obtained. 15 out of 16 AE patients and 79 (= 42%) out of 188 CE patients were Austrian nationals, 1 AE patient was of Swiss nationality, and 94% of the 109 non-Austrian patients came from Mediterranean countries. Cases of (presumably autochthonous) cystic echinococcosis were found in Lower Austria, Vienna, Burgenland, Styria, Upper Austria, Carinthia, Salzburg and Vorarlberg, the eastern part of Austria being the main distribution area. Cases of (certainly autochthonous) alveolar echinococcosis were recorded in the Tyrol, in Carinthia and in Lower Austria. At the time of diagnosis, the average ages of Austrian patients with E. multilocularis (49 years) and with E. granulosus (55 years), respectively were significantly higher than those of foreign CE patients (34 years). The finding concerning the localisation of the infection (78% of E. granulosus cysts and 100% of E. multilocularis lesions were located in the liver) are consistent with previously published reports.
1982年，奥地利启动了一项关于人体棘球蚴病患病率的研究项目。在1982年至1988年期间，收集了188例囊性棘球蚴病（CE）患者和16例肺泡型棘球蚴病（AE）患者的数据。16例AE患者中有15例、188例CE患者中有79例（42%）是奥地利公民，1例AE患者是瑞士国籍，109例非奥地利患者中有94%来自地中海国家。在下奥地利州、维也纳、布尔根兰州、施蒂利亚州、上奥地利州、克恩顿州、萨尔茨堡州和福拉尔贝格州发现了（可能为本地感染的）囊性棘球蚴病病例，奥地利东部是主要分布区域。在蒂罗尔州、克恩顿州和下奥地利州记录到了（肯定为本地感染的）肺泡型棘球蚴病病例。在诊断时，奥地利多房棘球绦虫患者（49岁）和细粒棘球绦虫患者（55岁）的平均年龄显著高于外国CE患者（34岁）。关于感染部位的研究结果（78%的细粒棘球绦虫囊肿和100%的多房棘球绦虫病变位于肝脏）与先前发表的报告一致。
