Abstract

In 2013, two cases of infection by that caused cystic echinococcosis in the lungs were reported. In the first case, there was a cyst of 6 × 7 cm in diameter, and in the second case, there were four cysts of 5 × 6 cm, 4 × 4 cm, 3.5 × 3 cm and 2.5 × 2 cm in diameter, respectively. In both cases, larvae were collected from the cysts. The larvae were identified as by morphology and a molecular method (using reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide hydrogenase [NADH] with 99%-100% homology compared with in GenBank). This is the first time that this species has been found in humans in Vietnam.
