The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of hydatidosis in west Azerbaijan, Iran during a 10 year period (2000-2009).
We surveyed medical records of infected patients with hydatid cyst who had been operated in four hospitals in Urmia City, the capital of West Azerbaijan Province, Iran. Several parameters were analyzed including age, sex, place of residency, hospitalization time, and the location of cysts.
Of 294 cases, 53.3% were female and 46.7% were male with the mean age of 39.4 years (5-93). The average number of operated cysts per year was 29.4 (0.98/100,000 of population). The most affected age group was 20-30 year olds (18.7% of the cases). Cysts were localized in liver and lung in 57.5% and 21.8% of cases respectively and the average hospitalization time was 9 days. Single organ involvement was seen in the majority of patients and 28 (9.5%) cases had multiple involvement. The distribution of residence in patients showed 108 (36.9%) of them to have urban origin and 185 (63.1%) were rural residents. The lowest number (n = 17) and the highest number of operation (n= 48) recorded in 2000 and 2007, respectively.
The prevalence of hydatidosis is high in this city and further studies are needed for evaluation of economic burden and risk factors for CE in this region.
本研究的目的是确定伊朗西阿塞拜疆在10年期间（2000 - 2009年）包虫病的患病率。
我们调查了在伊朗西阿塞拜疆省首府乌尔米耶市的四家医院接受手术的包虫囊肿感染患者的病历。分析了几个参数，包括年龄、性别、居住地点、住院时间和囊肿位置。
在294例病例中，53.3%为女性，46.7%为男性，平均年龄为39.4岁（5 - 93岁）。每年手术囊肿的平均数量为29.4个（每10万人中0.98个）。受影响最严重的年龄组是20 - 30岁（占病例的18.7%）。囊肿分别在57.5%和21.8%的病例中位于肝脏和肺部，平均住院时间为9天。大多数患者为单器官受累，28例（9.5%）为多器官受累。患者的居住分布显示，其中108例（36.9%）来自城市，185例（63.1%）为农村居民。2000年记录的手术数量最少（n = 17），2007年记录的手术数量最多（n = 48）。
该市包虫病患病率较高，需要进一步研究以评估该地区囊型包虫病的经济负担和危险因素。
