Echinococcosis is endemic in India but heart is an uncommon site of presentation of hydatid cyst. We report a case of a young female with hydatid cyst of right ventricular outflow tract who was operated through median sternotomy under cardiopulmonary bypass and entire cyst was successfully removed. The preoperative diagnosis was confirmed by histopathology of the excised specimen. (Ind J Thorac Cardiovasc Surg 2009; 25: 40-42)

“…Cardiac involvement is infrequent. Echinococcus reaches the right heart cavities through the portal or lymphatic routes; it lodges in the myocardium by way of coronary circulation after reaching the left side of the heart through the pulmonary circulation or a patent foramen ovale [5]. It grows slowly in myocardial tissue and within 1-5 years, it forms the actual cyst [6].…”
