    Synonym: Echinococcus cysticus unilocularis. (Canine tapeworm), End host: dog, fox, wolf.

    Larvae enter the liver via the portal vein, slowly displacing growth (ca 5 cm growth per year). Daughter cysts are frequently seen.

    CT 1 <- view CT 1

    CT 1: Intrahepatic, hypodense mass, in our case no typical septae recognizable. Air levels within the cysts.

      Echinococcus granulosus cyst in the liver:  2 cyst in liver
      (Pauline | 14.05.04)

      Dear Dr,


      I'm 35 years old, single womanand I 've done the ultra sound scan and found 2 small liver cyst at left liver lobe but according to the G.P., everything is under regular margin. I need some advice to prevent them become bigger. Thanks.

        re: Echinococcus granulosus cyst in the liver:  2 cyst in liver
        (Roland Talanow | 14.05.04)

        Dear Pauline,
        Your wish for medical consultation is very understandable.
        Our pediatric radiology project exclusively addresses questions regarding diagnostic imaging in childhood.
        It is therefore not possible to discuss medical questions, particularly regarding treatment of diseases.
        We would recommend that you talk with your family practician about this or he/she could give you advice who to contact.
        In the case if you or your physician should have special questions regarding diagnostic imaging in childhood (X-Ray, Ultrasound or MRI), you may always find a competent partner here (including a second opinion).

        You can also go on search engines (like www.Google.com) and search for keywords like "prevent liver cyst growing".

        Sincerely, Roland Talanow, MD, PhD

        (Mrs. Hancock | 11.02.04)

        I have been told I have a cyst in my liver but there is no need to treat it. How can I prevent it getting bigger? What causes them?
