Abstract: El objetivo del presente estudio fue determinar la prevalencia de Hidatidosis humana en 9 comunidades rurales del distrito de Yanahuanca, Provincia Daniel Alcides Carrión, Pasco, empleando como técnicas de diagnóstico la ecografía abdominal y la radiografía de tórax. Además se evaluó la asociación entre las variables edad, género y lugar de residencia con los pobladores positivos a quistes hidatídicos, durante el mes de Agosto del 2004. El examen de ultrasonido se realizó en 949 personas (52% de la población general) y el examen radiográfico en 829 (45.6%). La prevalencia general de Hidatidosis humana fue de 5.5% (52/949) con un intervalo de confianza al 95% de 4.1% a 7.1%. Se halló una asociación estadística significativa (p menor 0.05) de la variable edad con el resultado positivo al examen ecográfico, siendo las personas mayores de 40 años las que presentaron un mayor porcentaje. La relación de quistes hidatídicos hepáticos:pulmonares fue de 5:1 y el 56% (25/45) de los quistes detectados por ecografía presentaron parcial o completa calcificación. La prevalencia obtenida en el presente estudio es una de las más altas tasas reportadas en Latinoamérica en comparación con otros estudios de campo utilizando igual técnica de diagnóstico. Este resultado podría explicarse por la convivencia y estrecho contacto del poblador andino con el perro. Estos animales son utilizados en el cuidado y pastoreo del ganado ovino. Además, las deficientes condiciones higiénico-sanitarias, los bajos niveles socioeconómicos y culturales actuarían como factores importantes en la cadena de transmisión del E. granulosus.
The objective of this study was to determine the prevalence of human echinococcosis in 9 communities of the district of Yanahuanca, Province Daniel Alcides Carrión, Pasco, during August 2004. Human echinococcosis was determined using portable ultrasonography and chest X-ray examination. The study examined 949 individuals, thus a coverage of 51.7%. All of 949 persons were evaluated for abdominal ultrasound while only 829 (45.6%) allowed us to take chest X-ray. The overall prevalence of human cystic echinococcosis was 5.5% (52/949) with 95% Confidence Interval form 4.1% to 7.1%. There was significant association (p less 0.05) to the age with positive status using portable ultrasound. The ratio of liver:lung hydatid cysts was 5:1 and cysts of type 5 were the most frequently found (56%) followed by types 1 (17%) and 2 (9%), respectively. The prevalence of human hydatidosis in this endemic area of Peru is one of the highest reported in Latinoamérica. The coexistence and close human contact with infected dogs over a relatively long period is probably important in transmission of E. granulosus. In addition, the poor sanitation and hygiene conditions of the area in study would contribute to the development of metacestode. Key words: human, prevalence, hydatid cyst.
