“…5 On the other hand, in the case of biliary fistulas, which typically affect young people due to the long-term evolution of a hydatid cyst of the hepatic dome, the caustic feature of the bile can induce a chemical erosion of the diaphragm, lung, and pleura. 6,7 The pulmonary parenchyma will be damaged by the caustic action of this bile on the lung and bronchial tree, resulting in conditions ranging from simple hydatid pneumonia to the development of a cave. 6 Generally, it is a multiple or solitary cystic lesion of 1 to 20 cm in diameter.…”

Hydatid cyst disease is a health problem in some developing countries occurring in groups with permanent contact with dogs. It is a parasitic disease caused by Echinococcus Granulosus. The liver is the most common organ infected. If not treated appropriately; it may lead to developing life-threatening complications. Its rupture into bile ducts is the most frequent one, while hepatopulmonary fistula is a rare complication. We discuss the case of a child presenting those 2 complications as we emphasize the importance of early diagnosis and the role of the radiologist.

“…The treatment of pleuropulmonary lesions have been reported to represent the limitation of this approach in adult because the important lesions of the pulmonary parenchyma required a regulated resection such as lobectomy or segmentectomy [3,7]. The thoracic approach offering adequate access to treat both thoracic and abdominal lesions is defended by some authors [4,5,10,11].…”

Background Intrathoracic rupture of hepatic hydatid cyst is a rare but dangerous complication. Its occurrence in children is exceptional as diagnosis and management constitute real challenges. We report two cases of intrathoracic rupture of hepatic hydatid cyst in children. Case presentation Our patients were respectively 12-year-old boy and 9-year-old girl, known cases of respiratory symptoms, diagnosed initially for pleuropneumonia. The CT scan established the diagnosis of intrathoracic rupture of hepatic hydatid cyst in the pleural cavity for the first patient and in the bronchial tree for the second. An emergency surgery was performed for both. The second patient developed broncho-biliary fistulas during the post-operative course which necessitated a re-intervention. A recurrence was noted at follow-up for the second patient. Conclusion Intrathoracic rupture of hepatic hydatid cyst is a serious complication which can occur even in children. Its diagnosis needs a high index of suspicion. The surgical approach remains controversial and there is a lack of consensus about the best way of management. Recurrence may occur despite appropriate treatment.
