Many varieties of microorganisms can lead to heart diseases. Parasitic diseases are among them. In endemic countries, Echinococcus granulosus can cause cardiac involvement. Even though it is rare, this disease can cause mortality. In this review, we aimed to overview cardiac echinococcosis in the light of literature.

Birçok mikroorganizma çeşidi kalp hastalıklarına yol açabilir. Parazit hastalıkları da bunların arasındadır. Endemik ülkelerde Echinococcus granulosus kalp tutulumuna neden olabilir. Nadir de olsa bu hastalık ölüme neden olabilir. Bu derlemede kardiyak ekinokokkozu literatür ışığında gözden geçirmeyi amaçladık.
