Abstract

With regard to the importance of HYDATIDOSIS as one of the most common diseases among human and ANIMALS, this study was conducted to examine the prevalence of hydatid cyst in slaughtered ANIMALS at Sari slaughter house during 1999. With veterinary office and slaughter house agreement, 136442 ANIMALS were studied for hydatid cyst infection after slaughtering and separation of internal organs, The isolated lungs and livers of the ANIMALS were examined macroscopically by trained personnel under the supervision of the specialist for hydatid cyst. Following hydatid cyst observations, all information about the slaughered animal, sex and infected organ were recorded. The information was coded and analysed statisticaly. 11466 ANIMALS were infected with hydatid cyst. The rate of infection was 14.7% in sheep, 2.7% in goats and 6.3% in cattle. Liver, lung and both liver & lung infections were 5.2%, 7.4% and 2.03% in sheep, 2.4%,3% and 0.87% in cattle and 1.6%, 0.9% and 0, 37% in goats, respectively. Statistical analysis showed a significant difference in the rate of infection during different seasons. Since overall infection rate was 8.4%, the risk of human infection is also high in this region, Also the low rate of infection in goats as compared to sheeps could have a direct relation with the kind of nutrition. In addition, a low rate of infection during summer and autumn may be related with the kind of slaughered ANIMALS which are mostly goats and lambs.
