Özet:

 

Secondary echinococcosis is an important  complication of hydatid disease and is not  rare in the peritoneal cavity. However, the  frequency of secondary hydatidosis in the  pleural cavity is not very well known.  This study was planned to elicit the frequency  of secondary cyst development in the pleural  cavity, and to compare this with secondary  peritoneal hydatidosis. It was also intended to  follow up cyst development by serological  tests.  Twelve white female Island rabbits were  used. The mean weight of the rabbits was  2450±420 g. Cystic fluid containing  protoscolex, hydatid sand and germinative  membrane homogenate was injected via an  18 F needle into the pleural and peritoneal  cavities of the rabbits. At the begining and  the fourth and fifteenth weeks of the study,  5 cc of blood was withdrawn from the ear  veins of the rabbits for serological  investigations. All rabbits were sacrified by  cervical dislocation at the end of the fifteenth  week of the study. Peritoneal and pleural  cavities were opened and examined for  secondary cyst development. Serological  investigations were performed with indirect  hemaglutination and indirect flourescein  antibody tests.  The frequency of secondary echinococcosis in  the peritoneal cavity was 80% and, in the  pleural cavity 30 %. In determining the  antibodies against the hydatid antigens the  indirect flourescein antibody test was more  sensitive than the indirect hemaglutination  test.  The occurence of secondary echinococcosis is  possible in the pleural cavity, but to a lesser  degree than in the peritoneal cavity. Indirect  hemaglutination and indirect flourescein  antibody tests were found to be valuable  serological tools for the diagnosis of hydatid  disease.  Hydatid cyst, secondary echinococcosis,  pleural and peritoneal cavities, IHA and IFA  tests.
