Abstract EN
Hydatid disease is a zoonotic infection caused by larval stages of dog tapeworms belonging to the genus Echinococcus (family taeniidae) and is also referred to as echinococcosis.
Human cystic echinococcosis caused by E.
granulosus is the most common presentation and probably accounts for more than 95% of the estimated 2-3 million annual worldwide cases.
The liver (70–80%) and lungs (15–25%) are the most frequent locations for echinococcal cysts.
The diagnosis is made through the combined assessment of clinical, radiological, and laboratory findings.
The treatment is mainly surgical, and, with appropriate diagnosis and treatment, prognosis is good.
With advances and increasing experience in laparoscopic surgery, many more attempts have been made to offer the advantage of such a procedure to these patients (Chowbey et al.
(2003)).
