title: [Surgical treatment of pulmonary echinococcosis].
abstract: The experience of surgical treatment of the pulmonary echinococcosis (PE) at 515 patients is generalized. Character of operative intervention at PE depends on cyst's localization and presence of complications. The method of echinococcectomy with the cappitonnage of fibrous capsule, which is the most effective method of PE surgical treatment, is expounded. The methods of fibrous capsule anti-parasitogenic treatment are described: chemical (10% solution of sodium chloride, chlorhexidinum, betalin), physical (laser radiation, stream of hot air), being most effective, simple and accessible. The methods of videothoracoscopic (VTO) and video-assisted echinococcectomy (VAE), at which application permits the rehabilitation period of patients diminishes considerably, are expounded. The amount of postoperative complications at VTO and VAE made 16.7%, at open echinococcectomy--2.7%. Lethality was 0.2% (one patient died).
