An Endemic Health Issue; A Case of a Giant Pulmonary Hydatid Cyst with a Delayed Diagnosis
Öz
Giant hydatid cysts are rare clinical conditions that present significant challenges in diagnosis and management. This
case presentation discusses the management and postoperative course of a giant hydatid cyst in the lower lobe of the
left lung, with a single cyst measuring approximately 10 cm in diameter. A 44-year-old female patient presented with
complaints of chest pain and cough, and following diagnostic workup, the mass was initially suspected to be a lung
abscess, leading to her referral. The surgical intervention included cystectomy and capitonnage, and postoperative
treatment with albendazole was initiated. The patient is under ongoing follow-up care. Despite increasing knowledge
about the disease and better access to healthcare facilities, giant hydatid cyst cases are still encountered. This case
emphasizes the importance of preventing the disease and ensuring it is not overlooked in the differential diagnosis.
