Reports of four cyst hydatid cases in different size and location
Journal Title: Asian Pacific Journal of Tropical Disease - Year 2014, Vol 4, Issue 5
Abstract
Hydatid disease/echinococcus is caused by Echinococcus granulosus and it is endemic in many countries. Echinococcus commonly affect the liver but it has propensity to involve any organ or unusal location of the body. Treatment is surgical and medical but in many cases desicion of teatment is hard because of the location and size of cyst hydatid. In the present report, authors presented four patients with echinococcus with different anatomical site, size and desicion of treatment.
