Abstrakt: Three patients with arterial echinococcosis presented with chronic or acute arterial occlusion. One case diagnosed as Leriche's syndrome was found at surgery to have aortic occlusion caused by hydatid cysts; arterial reconstruction was performed by aortoiliac interposition of a woven Dacron vascular graft. In the other 2 cases presenting with acute femoral or brachial artery occlusion, embolectomy revealed hydatid cysts as the cause of occlusion.
