[Relapses in echinococcal disease].

The incidence of echinococcus disease recurrences after the surgical treatment equals 16,1% including 2,2% of true recurrences and 13,9% of pseudorecurrences. The cause of pseudorecurrences is an associated and primary-multiple injuries of organs of the thoracic and abdominal cavities, dissemination due to spontaneous rupture of cysts or an improper technique of the operation. Since pseudorecurrences are more frequent, prophylaxis of recurrences of echinococcus is completely dependent on the quality of preoperative examinations, wide revision of organs of the thoracic and abdominal cavities and observation of the operation technique undertaken to prevent dissemination of the operation zone.
