Abstract

Our country is an endemic location for hydatid cysts. Echinococcus granulosus can involve all organs in body being frequently liver and lungs. Multiple organ involvement occurs in approximately one third of cases. Occasionally, challenges may occur in surgical treatment of multiple hydatid cyst and several occasions of surgical procedures may be required. In this study, we present a case of right pulmonary, pericardial and hepatic hydatid cysts in which we performed surgery with a one-stage transthoracic approach.

Abstract

Ülkemiz kist hidatik için endemik bir bölgedir. Echinococcus granulosus en sık karaciğer ve akciğer olmak üzere tüm organları tutabilmektedir. Olguların yaklaşık üçte birinde multipl organ tutulumu görülmektedir. Multipl kist hidatiğin cerrahi tedavisinde zorluklarla karşılaşılabilmekte ve birkaç seans cerrahi i lem gerekebilmektedir. Bu çalışmada tek basamakta transtorasik yaklaşım ile cerrahi uyguladığımız sağ akciğer, perikardial ve karaciğer kist hidatikli bir olguyu sunduk.
