Hepatic alveolar echinococcosis(HAE)is a parasitic disease characterized by invasive growth. Major treatment methods include pharmacotherapy and surgical treatment,and surgical treatment mainly includes radical hepatectomy and palliative surgery. Radical hepatec-tomy is the first choice,and palliative surgery is mainly used to alleviate disease conditions and complications. Pharmacotherapy also plays an important role in the delay and control of HAE. In recent years,autologous liver transplantation has been used in the treatment of HAE and has become an effective therapy for end-stage HAE patients who cannot be cured by routine surgery. This article introduces the indica-tions and advantages/disadvantages of radical hepatectomy and palliative surgery,as well as the experience in the application of multidisci-plinary treatment,the concept of fast-track surgery,and autologous liver transplantation in the treatment of HAE patients,in order to pro-vide a reference for the treatment of HAE.
