Intraperitoneal reaction in Wistar rats after inoculation with several components of a human hydatid cyst.
Fifteen male Wistar rats were inoculated intra peritoneally with material obtained from a human hepatic hydatid cyst with 20% viability and previously inactivated with 20% NaCl. When the animals were sacrificed six months later, hydatid granulomas surrounding parasitic remains were detected in the peritoneum.
