Echinococcus {{c2::multilocularis}} Pathogenesis
Humans = dead-end hosts
Larval growth in liver indefinitely proliferative → invasion
Ingestion → egg hatches in {{c3::small intestine & releases oncosphere}} → penetrates intestinal wall, migrates → circulatory system → liver, lungs → oncosphere develop into a cyst → produce {{c4::protoscolices}} & daughter cysts

Extra
Overall for Echinococcus:
Mechanical tissue damage → pressure atrophy Immune damage → anaphylactic shock
Avoid immune response recognition via concealment of antigenic suites = coating of host molecules
