Hydatidosis in the province of La Pampa, Argentina, 1998.

Echinococcus granulosus is the agent that causes the classical hydatidosis or cystic echinoccosis. The most spread cycle in South America is the sheep-dog cycle, and offers favorable conditions for the development of the parasite. As the province of La Pampa shows an endemic presence with notificati...
