Genetic Profile of Hydatid Cysts in Patients with Multi-Organ Involvement: Mixed Infections by Different Strains.

Our knowledge on the susceptibility of humans to different genotypes of the zoonotic tapeworm and the genetic make-up of the cysts in multi-organ involvements is limited. This study aimed to identify the genotype profile of in patients undergoing hydatid surgery in an endemic area for cystic echinococcosis (CE) in southeastern Iran. Individuals who underwent hydatid cyst surgery were included in this study.
