Abstract

A systematic review of the publication, on the topic of diagnosis and treatment of inoperable alveolar echinococcosis of the liver over the past 30 years, to study the effectiveness of various methods of treatment of inoperable alveococcosis of the liver. We conducted a systematic search of literary data and selected sources from Google Scholar, PubMed, as well as research papers and online educational publications in English and Russian. Our literature review included 120 papers in which, according to the authors with inoperable liver alveococcosis, 883 patients were described, out of 120 articles: 29 full articles, 23 literary reviews, 68 clinical cases described. The authors of the articles were from various countries, such as Turkey (26%), France (24%), Germany (20%), China (18%), England (6%), Japan (5%) and other countries in Europe and Asia.
