PRIMARY RETROPERITONEAL HYDATID CYST; A RARE PRESENTATION OF ECHINOCOCCUS. Ekinokoklar?n nadir bir klinik formu; Primer retroperitoneal hidatik kist.

摘要

Retroperitoneal hydatid disease is a rare parasitic infection caused by the tapeworm Echinococcus granulosus. Most of the time it is secondary to a hepatic hydatid disease. We present a case of a 50-year-old man with an abdominal swelling which when evaluated turned out to be a primary retroperitoneal hydatid cyst, who underwent total excision of the cyst and postoperative albendazole therapy. Hence Hydatid cyst should always be considered in the differential diagnosis of all cystic masses in all anatomic locations, especially in individuals living in endemic regions of the world.??ZETEkinokokus granulozisin olu?turdu?u retroperitoneal hidatik kistlere olduk?a nadir rastlan?r.
