Alveolar echinococcosis of the liver is an uncommon and fatal disease resulting from hepatic infection by Echinococcus multilocularis. Liver transplantation has been proposed for unresectable cases with chronic complications, but up to now, no long-term follow-up has been reported. We report the case of a 29-year-old female who is disease-free more than six years after liver transplantation for a recurrent alveolar echinococcosis of the liver, confirming the place for liver transplantation in this disorder.
肝泡型包虫病是由多房棘球绦虫感染肝脏引起的一种罕见且致命的疾病。对于伴有慢性并发症的不可切除病例,已有人提出进行肝移植,但截至目前,尚无长期随访报告。我们报告了一例29岁女性病例,该患者因复发性肝泡型包虫病接受肝移植后六年多无疾病复发,这证实了肝移植在这种疾病中的地位。
