Abstract

Abstract: 【Abstract】 Echinococcus infection in elderly population（60-87 years old） was investigated by serological assay, medical imaging and epidemiology history in August, 2008. A total of 234 subjects from different nationalities were examined. Seven cases were serologically positive for echinococcosis and confirmed by medical imaging. Out of 30 suspected sera-positive cases, 3 were positive by medical imaging. There were 10 confirmed echinococcosis cases with a positive rate of 4.3%. There was significant difference on the prevalence among different towns（P＜0.05）, but no signifi-cant statistical difference on the prevalence among nationalities, careers and sex. The prevalence in females （4.8%） was higher than that of males （3.6%）.
