The problem of cystic echinococcosis in Van province

Bu çalışma, Van’da (Doğu Anadolu Bölgesi, Türkiye) Van Et Kombinası ve Van Belediye Mezbahasında prospektif olarak gerçekleştirildi. Çalışmada kesimi yapılan 552 sığır ve 1613 koyunun karaciğer, akciğer, dalak, kalp ve diğer iç organları cystic echinococcosis (CE) yönünden incelendi. Ayrıca teşhisi doğrulamak için organlar elle dikkatli bir şekilde incelendi ve organlar ve kistler bıçakla kesildi. Kesimi yapılan 486 sığır ve 1150 koyunun Türkiye’nin doğu sınırından Van yöresine giriş yaptığı, 66 sığır ve 463 koyunun Van’da yetiştirildiği saptandı. Van yöresine Türkiye’nin doğu sınırından giriş yapan hayvanlar ile Van’da yetiştirilen hayvanlarda saptanan CE’in prevalansını karşılaştırmada Z Testi kullanıldı. Ülkenin doğu sınırından Van yöresine geçirilen 486 sığırın %22.63’ünde ve 1150 koyunun %67.57’sinde CE bulundu. Enfeksiyon, Van’da yetiştirilen 66 sığırın %6.06’sında ve 463 koyunun %28.94’ünde belirlendi. Toplam 552 sığırın %20.65’inde ve 1613 koyunun %56.48’inde CE saptandı. Türkiye’nin doğu sınırından Van yöresine geçirilen hayvanlar ile Van’da yetiştirilen hayvanlar arasında CE’in prevalansı yönünden ayrı ayrı anlamlı ilişki bulundu (P

This study was carried out prospectively in Van Meat Company and Van Municipality Slaughterhouse, Eastern Anatolian Region of Turkey. In the study, liver, lungs, spleen, hearth and other internal organs of 552 cattle and 1613 sheep slaughtered were inspected for cystic echinococcosis (CE). The organs were examined carefully with hands and the organs and cysts were cut with knife for confirmation of diagnose. It has been detected that 486 cattle and 1150 sheep slaughtered were entered to Van province from the Eastern border of Turkey, and 66 cattle and 463 sheep were breed in Van. Z test was used to evaluate the relationship of the CE’s prevalence between the animals entered to Van province from the Eastern border of Turkey and breed in Van. CE was found in 22.63% of 486 cattle and 67.57% of 1150 sheep entered to Van province from Eastern border of the Country. The infection was determined in 6.06% of 66 cattle and in 28.94% of 463 sheep breed in Van. CE was totally detected in 20.65% of 552 cattle and in 56.48% of 1613 sheep. A significant independent relationship was found between the animals entered from the Eastern border of Turkey and breed in Van for CE’s prevalence (P<0.001).
