[Cestode infections in 1998].
In 1998, 603 intestinal cestode cases were registered in Poland. Among them 516 were caused by T. saginata, 5 by T. solium, 59 by Taenia sp., 2 by Hymenolepis nana and 1 by D. latum. Moreover, 31 cases of larval cestode infections were also registered. Three of them were caused by larvae of T. solium and the remaining ones by E. granulosus.
