Abstract EN
Human hydatid disease is a significant health problem in endemic regions caused by the larval form of Echinococcus granulosus.
In this paper, we report a case of liver hydatid cyst.
The patient, a 15-year-old boy, presented with a history of intermittent upper abdominal pain of a few-month duration was referred to our hospital for investigation.
Computed tomographic scan and laboratory test suggested a hydatid cyst in the right lobe of liver.
The adventitia resection of hydatid cyst was smoothly performed as there was a less bloody virtual space between adventitia and outer membrane.
Our diagnosis was made using an imaging approach and was confirmed during surgery.
We proposed the adventitia resection of hydatid cyst could be safe and easy to perform with low risk of bleeding and bile leakage.
