Modern Trends in the Prevention of Liver Echinococcosis

Abstract

The results of diagnostics and treatment of patients with liver echinococcosis were analyzed for the period
from 2010 to 2018. The follow-up amounted to 59 patients with recurrent liver echinococcosis. The acidforming
function of the stomach was analyzed in 34 patients who were on inpatient treatment for liver
echinococcosis. Indicators of secretion were reliably biased towards hypoacidity. We examined 31 families
of patients. The total number of examined was 93. In 66,7% of family members who had previously been
operated on for echinococcosis, reduced acidity was found. This indicates that the risk of infection with
echinococcosis is much higher in a hypoacid state than in normoacidic or hyperacidic gastric juice. A
method of using drugs based on albendazole in the preoperative period, as well as to prevent relapses in the
postoperative period, has been developed and proposed. The analysis of the incidence of liver echinococcosis
in all districts of the Khorezm region was carried out. In all areas, especially in the most endemic ones,
sanitary and educational activities are carried out both among the population and among the medical staff
of regional clinics. Conducted interconnection with the veterinary service of the region, as well as with the
sanitary and epidemiological bodies. The proposed method for applying Decasan residual cavity treatment
and ultrasonic cavitation has shown impressive efficiency due to the lower number of relapses
