Abstract

Echinococcosis is cosmopolitan zoonosis caused by adult or larval stages of tapeworms belonging to the genusEchinococcusRudolphi, 1801. Within the genusEchinococcusfour species are presently recognised, namelyEchinococcus granulosus, E. multilocularis, E. oligarthrusandE. vogeli, and taxonomic revision of the genus is probably needed (Thompson RCA, McManus DC, 2002, Trends Parasitol 18: 452- 457).E. granulosus, the major species of medical and public health importance which causes cystic echinococcosis (hydatidosis), has a global distribution.
