Journal Title: Journal of Orthopedics & Bone Disorders - Year 2018, Vol 2, Issue 2
Abstract
Hydatid disease is an infestation caused by Echinococcus granulosus, which is still widespread in temperate zone countries. The muscoloskeletal localisation is extremely rare and represents a major challenge for surgeons because there are few cases reported in the literaturel. We report a case of a 30-year-old man with no medical antecedants, living in a rural area with a primary hydatid cyst located in the intermuscular space front of the arm.
