The clinical symptoms are non-specific and manifest late. Echinococcosis is often discovered incidentally in clinical practice. Diagnostic errors can result from low awareness of healthcare professionals regarding echinococcosis in regions with low incidence rates.</p> <p>This article describes a case report of imported echinococcosis in a patient with chickenpox (varicella) diagnosed at Infectious Diseases Clinical Hospital No. 2 of the Moscow Healthcare Department in April 2021. The patient came from Kyrgyzstan, where he worked as a sheep farmer. Inpatient ultrasound and computed tomography of the abdomen and retroperitoneum revealed multiple cystic liver lesions of parasitic origin. An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay revealed the IgG antibodies to Echinococcus antigens.</p> <p>This clinical case highlights the ongoing relevance of echinococcosis in Russia and underscores the need for a comprehensive analysis of clinical, epidemiological, laboratory, and imaging data. These findings also suggest the importance of raising awareness among healthcare professionals about this infection, especially when treating migrants from endemic regions with cystic liver lesions and patients in high-risk groups.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p>Эхинококкоз — паразитарное заболевание человека, распространённое во многих странах мира из-за миграции населения, наличия профессиональных факторов риска и развития туризма. Клинические симптомы этого заболевания неспецифичны и появляются поздно. В клинической практике врачи часто выявляют эхинококкоз случайно. Недостаточная бдительность врачей в отношении эхинококкоза в регионах с низким уровнем заболеваемости может приводить к диагностическим ошибкам.</p> <p>В данной статье описан завозной случай эхинококкоза у пациента с ветряной оспой, который диагностировали в ГБУЗ «Инфекционная клиническая больница № 2 Департамента здравоохранения города Москвы» в апреле 2021 г. Пациент прибыл из Кыргызстана, где занимался овцеводством. В стационаре при проведении ультразвукового исследования, компьютерной томографии органов брюшной полости и забрюшинного пространства выявили множественные кистозные образования печени паразитарного генеза. Иммуноферментный анализ показал наличие антител IgG к антигенам эхинококка.</p> <p>Представленное клиническое наблюдение демонстрирует актуальность проблемы эхинококкоза на территории Российской Федерации и свидетельствует о необходимости тщательно анализировать клинико-эпидемиологические данные, результаты лабораторной и инструментальной диагностики. Кроме того, наблюдение показывает важность повышенной настороженности врачей в отношении этой инвазии, особенно среди мигрантов с кистозными поражениями печени из эндемичных регионов и пациентов из групп повышенного риска.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>echinococcosis</kwd><kwd>case report</kwd><kwd>imaging</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>эхинококкоз</kwd><kwd>клинический случай</kwd><kwd>диагностика</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group/></article-meta></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><mixed-citation>Tokmalaev AK, Kozhevnikova GM.
