Relative survival analysis of alveolar echinococcosis cases, University Hospital Zurich, Zurich, Switzerland, 1973–2022. A) Relative survival of alveolar echinococcosis patients compared with the population of Switzerland. B) Relative survival grouped by age at alveolar echinococcosis diagnosis. One patient with an alveolar echinococcosis diagnosis at 86 years of age and died at age 99 was excluded for better visualization (Appendix Figure 2).
