title: [Surgical treatment of multiple pulmonary echinoccocosis].
abstract: Clinical observations concerning the surgical treatment of multiple pulmonary echinococcosis in 54 patients are set forth in the paper. Various surgical interventions were carried out upon 46 patients: 16--for unilateral multiple echinicoccosis, 30--for bilateral multiple echinococcosis; in 8 patients pulmonary echinococcosis was combined with liver injury. From the authors' experience the surgical treatment of multiple pulmonary echinococcosis is an effective method. Good clinico-roentgenologic results were found in 44 out of 46 patients operated upon. 2 patients died from cardio-pulmonary insufficiency in the early postoperative period.
