Echinococcus multilocularis is endemic in Germany. However, alveolar echinococcosis is a rare disease. Most commonly the parasite affects the liver, behaving like a malignant tumour. Bones are affected in less than 2% of cases. We report a case of vertebral osteomyelitis accompanied by recurrent cutaneous fistula formation.
多房棘球绦虫在德国流行。然而，泡型包虫病是一种罕见的疾病。大多数情况下，寄生虫会影响肝脏，表现得像恶性肿瘤。不到 2%的病例会影响骨骼。我们报告了一例伴有复发性皮肤瘘形成的脊椎骨骨髓炎病例。
