Abstract

Echinococcosis, also known as hydatid disease, is a zoonotic parasitic infection that poses a significant risk to human health. This article delineates the diagnostic and therapeutic course of a patient afflicted with pulmonary echinococcosis who was admitted to the Department of Thoracic Surgery II at Yunnan Cancer Hospital in April 2024. The patient exhibited a history of extensive exposure to livestock and a penchant for consuming undercooked meat. Prior to undergoing surgical intervention, the patient was initially diagnosed with bronchogenic pulmonary cyst. However, subsequent pathological examination revealed a diagnosis of pulmonary echinococcosis. The rarity of the disease and the paucity of experience in diagnosis and treatment rendered the patient's case a valuable opportunity to elucidate the diagnostic and therapeutic journey. This report aims to provide a comprehensive reference for the accurate identification and treatment of pulmonary echinococcosis in future clinical practice.

1例报告:肺包虫病误诊为支气管源性肺囊肿。
棘球蚴病,又称包虫病,是一种对人类健康构成重大风险的人畜共患寄生虫感染。本文描述了2024年4月云南省肿瘤医院胸外科二科收治的一例肺棘球蚴病的诊断和治疗过程。患者表现出广泛接触牲畜的历史和食用未煮熟的肉类的嗜好。在接受手术干预之前,患者最初被诊断为支气管源性肺囊肿。然而,随后的病理检查显示肺棘球蚴病的诊断。这种疾病的罕见性和诊断和治疗经验的缺乏使患者的病例成为阐明诊断和治疗过程的宝贵机会。本报告旨在为今后临床中肺棘球蚴病的准确识别和治疗提供全面参考。
