Hydatid disease is a parasitosis
and is endemic in many sheeprearing regions in the world especially in the Middle East and the
Mediterranean countries. As a result of spontaneous rupture of the
hydatid cysts into the peritoneum
or pulmonary region serious morbidity and mortality may occur.
A 48-year-old woman was admitted to the emergency room of the
State Hospital with complaints of
respiratory distress; on the same
day, after starting the administration of medical treatment, she
was taken to the emergency service again with vomiting blood
and died in the emergency room.
Autopsy of the case was performed in Erzurum Regional Center
of the Council of Forensic Medicine. During post-mortem examination a large cyst (10x5x4cm) in
the right lung without any daughter vesicle was detected.
Sharing the retrospective data
obtained from medico-legal autopsies with clinical branches is
important. As a result of such
sharings, the data obtained from
medico-legal autopsies of the
cases clinically undiagnosed but
diagnosed during the medicolegal
autopsy are thought to contribute
the improvement of diagnosis and
treatment viewpoints in clinical
branches. The aim of our case
presentation is to provide this
sharing
