title: [Multiple echinococcosis of brain, heart and kidneys].
abstract: The authors report a rare case of multiple echinococcosis (brain, heart and kidneys). Neuronavigation, intraoperative ultrasound scanning have allowed to plan exact and non-traumatic access to the cysts. Microsurgical technique and intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring provided removal of seven cysts without their rupture from the left parietooccipital and right parietal area with good postoperative functional result. Serologic analysis of antibodies with antigens of echinococci and histological research confirmed the diagnosis of cystic echinococcosis.
