“…Low-level hydatid cysts can mimic oesophageal duplication cysts. Duplications should have all three typical signs: first of all, they should be attached to at least one point of the alimentary tract; second and third are that they should have a well-developed smooth muscle coat, and the epithelial lining of duplication should represent some portions of alimentary tract, respectively [ 2 , 10 , 12 ].…”

The cystic appearance of both oesophageal duplications and pulmonary hydatid cysts can cause a misdiagnosis very easily due to rarity of cystic oesophageal duplications beside the higher incidence of hydatid cyst, especially in endemic areas. Here we report a 7-year-old girl with an oesophageal duplication cyst on the left side misdiagnosed as a hydatid cyst. The aim of the study is to report rare oesophageal duplications in the differential diagnosis of intrathoracic cysts.
