Factors related to recurrence in surgical treatment of hydatid cyst

Abstract

Aim: Curative treatment of cyst hydatid is surgical or interventional. However, recurrence is a very important problem today. In our study, we aimed to identify factors affecting recurrence in the surgical treatment of hydatid cyst.

Methods: This study was carried out retrospectively, and the files of 228 patients operated due to hydatid cyst were examined and data were recorded. 72 patients who did not meet the inclusion criteria were excluded from the study. Our results and factors affecting recurrence were examined.

Results: The recurrence was observed in 14 patients (8.9%). No relationship could be found between the recurrence and other factors such as the localization of the cyst, Gharbi classification, applied surgical technique, the contents of the cyst, treatment, and relationship between the cyst and bile tract, postoperative complications, the number and diameter of the cyst.

Conclusion: Prospectively planned and involving larger patient groups studies are needed for the determination of the factors affecting recurrence after surgery of liver hydatid cyst.
