Case Report: Amphotericin B and Mefloquine as a Salvage Treatment of Alveolar Echinococcosis
Alveolar echinococcosis is an emerging zoonotic disease caused by the parasite Echinococcus multilocularis. Most patients are diagnosed at a late stage, when lifelong treatment with benzimidazoles is required to stop disease progression. However, for patients who do not tolerate benzimidazole therapy, there are no alternatives. Here, we present a patient with advanced alveolar echinococcosis who was successfully treated with amphotericin B deoxycholate and mefloquine as a rescue therapy after he developed albendazole intolerance.
