A case of cyst hydatid have a family history with pulmonary, hepatic and splenic involvement

Kist hidatik primer olarak karaciğer ve akciğerde görülen parazitik bir hastalıktır. Hidatik kistler uzunca bir süre asemptomatik kalabilmelerine rağmen, rüptür ya da piyojenik infeksiyona bağlı olarak semptomatik olabilirler. Endemik bölgelerde kistik echicoccosis (CE) insidansı 100.000 kişide 1-220 arasında değişirken, alveolar echicoccosis (AE) insidansı 0.03-1.2'dir ve bu oranlar Echinoccosis‘in nadir olduğunu gösterir. E. vogeli ile infestasyonlar, Echinococcosis'in nadir formudur ve genellikle Güney Amerika'nın güney bölgelerinde bildirilmektedir. Bu olguyla, pulmoner, hepatik ve splenik tutulumları olan bir hastada yakın akrabaların inceleme gerekliliği ve literatürün gözden geçirilmesi amaçlanmıştır.

Ailesinde pulmoner, hepatik ve splenik tutulum öyküsü olan bir kist hidatik olgusu

Cyst hydatid is a parasitic disease seen as hydatid cysts in primarly lung and liver. Although hydatid cysts may remain as asymptomatic during a long time, they may become a symptomatic depending on the rupture and pyogenic infection. The incidence of cystic echinococcosis (CE) in endemic areas ranges from 1-220 cases per 100,000 inhabitants, while the incidence of alveolar echinococcosis (AE) ranges from 0.03-1.2 cases per 100,000 inhabitants, making it a much more rare form of echinococcosis. Infestation with E vogeli is the rarest form of echinococcosis and is reported mainly in the southern parts of South America. With this case, we aimed that both review the literature data and reawaken the requirement of family scanning in close relatives, because of pulmonary, hepatic and splenic involvements are coexist in this case.
