Incidental finding of multiple pulmonary and cardiac hydatid cysts.
Annales de Cardiologie et D'angéiologie 2021 Februrary 24
BACKGROUND: Cardiac hydatid cyst is a rare parasitic disease. Since it may be associated with fatal complications, early diagnosis and treatment of a cardiac hydatid cyst is very important, however, it may stay asymptomatic for a long time, until they reveal themselves being perforated into cardiac chambers and/or pulmonary artery or systemic circulation.
CASE PRESENTATION: We report a case of a young asymptomatic boy, who underwent a routine chest x ray in a pre employment check up in whom we discovered a multiple pulmonary lesions and a right ventricle hydatid cyst. He then underwent a successful treatment CONCLUSION: Due to the high risk of associated complications, cardiac hydatid cysts should be removed surgically, even in asymptomatic patients.
