[Epidemiologic surveillance of hydatidosis in the Patagonian region, Argentina: 1983-1988].
The results of a control program of hydatid disease in five jurisdictions of the Patagonian Region in Argentina are presented. The information is glossed in rates of infection in man (95 x 100,000 in 1988 and 15 x 100,000 in 1983), dogs (21.6% in 1983 and 3.1% in 1988) and sheep (16.6% in 1983 and 2.6% in 1988).
