  1. Echinococcosis Etiology & Epidemiology

  2. Echinococcosis / Hydatid Disease  kyste hydatique / Hydatidosis  Zoonotic infection caused by the larval stages of cestodes belonging to the genus Echinococcus

  3. How many Echinococcus species are there?  classic medical literatures: 4 species - E. granulosus > cystic echinococcosis - E. multilocularis > Alveolar echinococcosis - E. vogeli > polycystic echinococcosis - E. oligarthra > Unicystic echinococcosis  Recent findings reveal at least 10 species

  4. Echinococcus granulosus sensu lato

  6. In dogs and other carnivores

  7. Global importance of cystic echinococcosis  Non-monetary burden: - More than one million DALY  Monetary burden: - $ 3.0 billion

  8. Epidemiology of cystic echinococcosis  What is Epidemiology ? - in people - in dogs and other carnivores - in sheep, etc.

  10. CE status in Iran  Annual surgical cases : 0.6-2.6 / 10 5 population  Ultrasound (US) prevalence in humans: 0.2-1.8 %  Prevalence in dogs: 6.8-55.7 %  Prevalence in livestock: 0.4-74.4 %

  11.  January 1990 to December 2015  Most cases of human hydatidosis were in southern Iran, with a prevalence of 5.8% (3.2–9.2%).
