    Author: Moro P, Schantz PM.
    Journal: Parasitol Int; 2006; 55 Suppl():S181-6. PubMed ID: 16376604.
    Abstract:
    Echinococcus granulosus and related genotypic variants, the agents of cystic hydatid disease, occur widely in the American continents from Alaska and Northern Canada in North America to Tierra del Fuego in South America. Here we review the historical and current distribution and prevalence of these infections throughout the American countries and the results of programs to control or eliminate the infection.
