“…Till date, around 30 case reports of primary fallopian tube hydatid disease are reported, but none of them mentioned bilateral involvement. [5] In present case, bilateral fallopian tube involvement was present. However, on CECT scan, an additional splenic cystic lesion was also noted with radiological features similar to pelvic disease.…”

“…Surgical skills are very important to ensure no spillage of cyst contents to prevent possibilities of recurrence or anaphylaxis. Further, contamination during surgery can be avoided, using fields soaked with protoscolicide solution (95 % ethanol solution or hypertonic saline) in order to prevent recurrence and anaphylaxis [5]. Albendazole is a safe antihelminthic drug which can be used as effective adjuvant chemotherapy to minimize recurrence after surgery.…”

Echinococcosis is a zoonotic disease commonly known, as hydatid disease is endemic in India and mostly caused by Echinococcus granulosus. Hydatid cyst most commonly involves liver followed by lungs with a frequency of 60% and 20–30% respectively. Rarely, it can primarily involve pelvic organs in females such as uterus, ovaries, fallopian tubes etc. either separately or sometimes together, which may mimic malignancy and create diagnostic dilemma. Till date, around 30 case reports of primary fallopian tube hydatid disease are reported, however none of them mentioned bilateral involvement. Herein, we report a case of bilateral fallopian tubal hydatid disease in a 45-years-old female presented with a 4 months history of lower abdominal pain and abdominal distension with review of literature

Highlights The lung is the second most commonly affected organ by hydatidosis, and the bilateral involvement is rare even in endemic regions. Management of bilateral pulmonary hydatid cyst is controversial. Some authors recommend operating bilateral cysts in two-stage surgery, with an interval of three to four weeks between procedures. The involvement of the psoas muscle is rare, its diagnosis is delayed as the latter is most of the time asymptomatic.
