With the localization of the nodes of the alveolar echinococcus in the right lobe of the liver, the most common wedge-shaped resection is performed with the marginal location of the echinococcus. With large nodes spreading into the parenchyma, radical operations are a very serious intervention and are rarely performed. A. V. Melnikov collected from the literature for 15 years only 3 descriptions of massive resections of the right lobe of the liver for echinococcosis and added one of his own observation.
