Abstract

Osseous cystic echinococcosis (CE) is a rare disease caused by the larval stage of Echinococcus granulosus (E. granulosus) and CE is different from alveolar echinococcosis (AE) caused by the larva of E. multilocularis. During a period of 20 years (1983-2003), a total of 364 cases of echinococcosis, including 263 CE and 101 AE cases were diagnosed at Hydatidos Research Laboratory (HRL), Basic Medical College, Lanzhou University, China. Of them, 5 cases of osseous CE (1.37%) were encountered and now reported as follows.
