title: Our experience in operative treatment of secondary and recurrent echinococcosis.
abstract: The frequency rate of echinococcis has recently increased rapidly and so has the number of the relapses of the disease. The aim of the present retrospective study was to summarise our experience in the surgical treatment of secondary and recurrent echinococcosis. We discuss the most effective methods for operative treatment in which the intervention spares organs and combines with further antiparasytic treatment.
