| Popis: |
We report a case of echinococcal disease affecting the brain and the kidney. The case is unusual because of multiplicity of the intracerebral lesion and sparing of the liver and lungs. The intracerebral lesion was presented with epileptic convulsions. This was successfully treated surgically. Subsequently renal echinococcal cysts were identified. These were treated by partial nephrectomy due to the location of the cysts. The patient is disease free at 8 years. |
