Conservative Management of a Hydatid Cyst During Pregnancy

Journal Title: Scholars International Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology - Year 2018, Vol 1, Issue 5

Abstract

Hydatid disease is a global parasitic zoonosis with a very low incidence of 1 in 30,000 during pregnancy, with liver as the main organ to occur in it. Their diagnosis would depend on their clinical or radiological presentation, but the main problem during pregnancy would be their management. Here in, we present our case of accidently discovered liver hydatid cyst during pregnancy that was managed by albendazole therapy.
