Surgical Alternatives Used in the Treatment of Liver Hydatid Cyst: A Systematized Approach Based on Evidence (an Overview)

Echinococcosis is an endemic zoonosis in the south of Chile; we therefore have occasion to treat a large number of patients, particularly in the liver. Hepatic echinococcosis (HE) has its own morbidity and mortality due to evolutionary complications, to which the risk of complications related to the...
