A rare presentation of hydatid cyst in a child

Kist hidatik dünyadaki en yaygın ve en ciddi sestod infeksiyonudur. Hidatik hastalığın en sık etkilediği organ karaciğer olup, bunu akciğerler izler. Olguların %5-13’ünde her iki organ da birlikte etkilenir. Böbrek tutulumu nadiren bildirilmiştir. Burada akciğer ve böbrekte hidatik kisti olan ve cerrahinin her iki organda da etkili olduğu bir olguyu sunduk. Bu olgunun nadir olmasının sebebi, karaciğer tutulmaksızın ender bir birliktelik gösterdiği bu organlarda kist gelişiminin görülmesidir.

Çocuktaki nadir bir kist hidatik prezentasyonu

Cyst hydatid is the most widespread, serious cestode infection in the world. The most common organ affected by hydatid disease is the liver followed by the lungs and the two organs are affected simultaneously in about 5-13% of cases. The involvement of kidneys are rarely reported. Here we reported a patient with hydatid cysts in lung and kidney which the surgery was effective for both organs. The rarity of this case is the unusual combination of the cyst development in these organs without the involvement of liver.
