Human polycystic echinococcosis is a parasitic infection caused by the larval stage of Echinococcus vogeli which occurs in rural areas of Central and South America. Abdominal echinococcosis caused by E. vogeli is reported for the first time in a child, a 6-year-old boy in French Guiana. The diagnosis was made by histological and molecular techniques. In tropical regions, this neglected disease must be considered even in children.
人类多囊性包虫病是由伏氏棘球绦虫幼虫阶段引起的一种寄生虫感染,该病发生在中美洲和南美洲的农村地区。法属圭亚那一名6岁男童首次报告了由伏氏棘球绦虫引起的腹部包虫病。诊断是通过组织学和分子技术做出的。在热带地区,即使是儿童也必须考虑到这种被忽视的疾病。
