Pakistan is an endemic area for the disease. The patients in our series were relatively younger as compared with those in other reports. Surgery is the treatment of choice for hydatid disease and has good results. Pre-op and post-op chemotherapies decrease the risk of intraoperative infection and recurrence. Chest X-ray and abdominal ultrasound should be carried out in case of even minimum clinical suspicion, especially in endemic areas.
