“…The best option is total surgical excision without breaking through the wall. The total pericystectomy represents the choice technique, since it avoids the complications of residual hull and solves the problem of recurrence [12][13][14][15][16]. However, it is not always feasible safe for deep cysts and in close contact with the vascular and nervous elements.…”

Primary muscle hydatidosis is very rare, accounting for less than 1% of hydatid cyst locations, and the gluteus muscle location is exceptional. The objective of this study is to report an exceptional location of hydatid cyst of the gluteus muscle presented like a tumor in the buttock region. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is helpful in diagnosis, it represents the best test for hydatid cysts of the soft parts. It is important to establish the diagnosis preoperatively in order to limit the risk of anaphylactic shock or dissemination in the event of puncture or accidental opening of the cyst during resection. The eradication of this disease is based on prophylaxis.

“…This explains the frequency of liver involvement (60%-70% of cases) and lung involvement (5%-27% of cases) [2][3][4]. Unusual localizations have been reported, including bone (1%-3%), pleura or peritoneum (4%-7%), spleen and kidney (2%-5%), brain (1%-5%), heart (0.5%-2% of hydatidosis localizations), and rarely the thyroid, pancreas, ovaries, joints, subcutaneous soft tissues, and muscles [5]. The majority of reported cases of subcutaneous hydatid cysts are located in the thigh (27%), hypogastric region, thorax, and head and neck region [2].…”

The hydatid cyst is a cosmopolitan parasitic infection caused by tapeworms of the genus Echinococcus and is a major public health problem in developing countries. Solitary hydatid cysts located in the buttocks are very rare, and the unusual location of the cyst can aid in the differential diagnosis of subcutaneous masses in this area, particularly in endemic areas. In this report, we present the case of a 39-year-old man who was admitted to the emergency department with a painful, abscessed cyst in the buttock region. The cyst was completely excised, and histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of a hydatid cyst. Further investigations did not reveal any other locations. Although the buttock region is an extremely rare site of infection for a hydatid cyst, it should be considered in cystic lesions, especially in endemic areas.
