[Retrospective analysis of renal echinococcosis confirmed by surgery and pathology: 3 cases].
A retrospective study was carried out to analyze 3 cases of renal echinococcosis confirmed by surgery and pathology in the hospital during 1999-2008. The patients were examined by 64-CT plain scan and multiple period enhancement scan. Among them, 2 were multi-daughter-cyst hydatid disease, and 1 appeared as solitary one. Two cases were once misdiagnosed as renal cyst and renal hamartoma, and the other was diagnosed correctly before operation. CT sign scanning combined with epidemiological information can make an accurate diagnosis for renal echinococcosis.
