Core Tip

Core Tip: While numerous studies have reports on liver transplantation for echinococcosis, few have delved into its historical context and emerging trends. This study underscored the importance of comprehending historical and trend-based dimensions to anticipate future research hotspots in this domain. Consequently, the study aimed to conduct a bibliometric analysis to map the research landscape, highlight influential works, and identify potential future research directions.
