Isolated Renal Hydatid Cyst Presenting As a Liver Lesion

Abstract

The renal hydatid cyst is uncommon compared to that in the liver or lung. Kidney involvement represents 2-4% of all cases. Renal hydatid cysts can remain asymptomatic for many years and then be discovered incidentally. Ultrasound (USG) is considered as the primary imaging modality for the classification of different types of appearances. Computed tomography (CT) as an imaging modality is especially better than USG in the presence of a complicated cyst to show communication with intraabdominal organs. In some cases, the origin of lesion may not be cleared with CT Therefore, the result may be confusing as was in our patient. The treatment of isolated renal hydatid disease is surgery.
