[Possibilities of surgical and drug therapy of parasitic cholestasis].
Out of 123 patients with hydatid-disease of the liver in 15 patients biliary engorgement by compression from cysts or parasites in the biliary system were observed. Diagnosis can be established by serology, sonography, scintigraphy, ERCP and CT. Invasive diagnostic procedures are not indicated. Surgical therapy of echinococcosis is in the first place; long-term adjuvant chemotherapy by Mebendazole is indicated if the resection of the cysts is not complete.
