CE is known to be endemic in some parts of Central Asia. We present findings from an ultrasound-based survey to estimate the prevalence of CE in the Turkestan oblast of Kazakhstan.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>In October 2019, six villages were chosen based on records from a national surveillance dataset. Inhabitants aged 5\u201390 y were invited to undergo a free abdominal ultrasound to screen for CE cysts. All identified cysts were staged according to the WHO-endorsed classification for CE cysts.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>A total of 2252 individuals underwent ultrasound screening. Twenty-two (0.98%) individuals had CE, with a combined total of 33 cysts: 25 (75.7%) inactive (14 CE4, 11 CE5) and 8 (24.3%) active\/transitional (2 CE1, 1 CE2, 3 CE3a, 2 CE3b). One patient had a postsurgical cavity. Sixty-eight patients (3.0%) reported CE prior to surgical treatment. In 25 (36.8%) previously diagnosed patients, albendazole prophylaxis was not used.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>CE is endemic in the study region, with ongoing transmission. The number of surgically treated CE patients suggests an underestimation of the disease burden by the current surveillance system.
