Abstract: Moreover, in women this disease occurs 3-5 times more often. At the same time, according to the same organization, “more than 1 million people in the world are affected by echinococcosis, and among various organs and tissues, in 44-84% of cases the process is localized in the liver.” Large centrally located cysts and massive cystic lesions can lead to compression of the vascular-secretory elements of the liver with the development of symptoms of obstructive jaundice and portal hypertension. There is no consensus on the origin of non-parasitic liver cysts. Some authors are of the opinion that cysts form as a result of inflammatory hyperplasia of the biliary tract during embryogenesis and their subsequent obstruction.
