“…Total surgical excision and antiparasitic drugs are used in the treatment. Patmano et al presented 8 cases with muscle involvement in different regions, and they all achieved complete cure with surgical excision and antiparasitic treatment for 3 months after the operation, and no recurrence was detected [9]. In our case, we presented a giant hydatid cyst extending in the rectus femoris muscle and continuing for 30 years.…”

Hydatid cyst (CH) is a zoonotic disease caused by a parasite of the cestode class called Echinococcus [1].There are 4 main genera of Echinococcus: E. granulosus, E. multilocularis, E. vogeli, and E. Oligarthus. Echinococcus granulosus causes cystic echinococcosis (CE), and this clinical form is the most common clinical form both in our country and in the world [2]. It can be involved in many organs and systems. In this study, we aimed to present atypical localized hydatid cysts such as intracerebral, ovary, thigh and uterus. All cases were confirmed by histopathological diagnosis. In conclusion, since our country is an endemic region in terms of hydatid cyst disease, it should be noted that such atypical localizations can be found in many different anatomical regions other than the liver and lung. In the treatment of the disease, appropriate surgical and medical treatment and regular follow-up are important to detect local recurrence and complications of the disease.

“…In addition, the disease progresses with cysts in many organs, especially the liver and lungs. [ 1 ] Albendazole is a benzimidazole group drug used alone or in combination with surgery in the treatment of many helminthiases, especially hydatid cysts. It could be given in the form of continuous or intermittent for 6 months.…”

Albendazole is a benzimidazole group drug used alone or in combination with surgery in the treatment of many helminthiasis, especially hydatid cysts. Type 1 hypersensitivity reaction has been reported rarely. Treatment with desensitization has been successfully applied in a few adult patients, however literature information on pediatric patients was not available. Here, we present a pediatric case in which Type 1 reaction occurred due to the use of albendazole during hydatid cyst treatment and undergone desensitization.

“…Absence of hydatid cysts in the liver or lung and serology negativity especially in early period of the disease make the diagnosis difficult. Soft tissue tumors should be always considered in the differential diagnosis (7). Therefore, radiological imaging methods such as ultrasonography, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging should be included in the diagnostic workup.…”

“…Total excision of the cyst without perforation is the most important cornerstone of the surgical approach. After surgery, albendazole treatment can be administered for an average of three months (7). These patients should be also followed up regularly for the local recurrence or new primary lesions.…”

Hydatid cyst is a parasitic infection caused by Echinococcus granulosus, and is endemic in some countries and regions where the common hosts (cattle, cow, sheep) are frequently raised, such as Middle East, Australia, South America, and Turkey (1). The human is an intermediate host of this parasite, and is usually contaminated through infected foods. Liver and lungs are the most common sites of hydatid cyst whereas soft tissues are rare localizations for this disease, even in endemic areas. Among those, abdominal wall is an extremely unusual site for primary hydatid cyst (1-3). Herein, a rare and interesting case of hydatid cyst located in the anterior abdominal wall was presented.
