The cysticercus (the embryo of tania echinococcus--a tape-worm found in dogs and sheep) enters the alimentary canal, is taken up by the blood stream, and where it lodges produces the hydatid cyst. The cyst consists of a true parasitic, enclosed in an adventitious or false cyst wall formed of fibrous tissue resulting from chronic irritation. The true cyst wall, which collapses and curls up when removed, is gelatinous in appearance and composed of seven or eight layers and a delicate inner layer; this lamination is characteristic. The true cyst is easily lacerable and readily separates from the adventitious wall, which may be very dense or even calcareous. Hydatids contain a clear, watery fluid, sp. gr. 1010, in which sodium chloride is present. The cyst may be "barren," but more usually the inner surface is studded with brood-capsules containing clusters of minute scolices armed with hooklets which, whin the fluid is withdrawn, separate from the wall and are seen floating in it as minute white...
