Two cases of spinal involvement in alveolar echinococcosis are reported. Conventional radiographs showed bone lysis and spondylitis; computed tomographic scans showed detail of local spread to the ribs, other vertebrae, and soft tissues. Differential diagnosis, which includes other infections and hydatidosis, is difficult, and the diagnosis may be suggested by evidence of a primary hepatic focus, geographic propensity to the infection, and laboratory findings.
报告了两例肺泡型棘球蚴病累及脊柱的病例。传统X线片显示骨质溶解和脊柱炎；计算机断层扫描显示了病变向肋骨、其他椎体及软组织局部扩散的细节。鉴别诊断包括其他感染和包虫病，存在困难，原发性肝病灶的证据、感染的地理倾向及实验室检查结果可提示诊断。
