Echinococcosis is a parasitic disease caused by tapeworms of the genus Echinococcus.
Echinococcosis is primarily transmitted through contact with infected animals or their contaminated feces.

Cystic echinococcosis is caused by the larval stage of the Echinococcus granulosus tapeworm, commonly known as hydatid disease.
