    Abstract:
    A case of hydatid disease of lung and liver is described. The patient was investigated because of a circumscribed shadow in the right lung on chest skiagram. Another cystic shadow was picked up in the right lobe of liver on ultrasound examination. Both the cysts in right lung and liver were removed simultaneously through a right thoracophrenotomy. Emphasis is being laid on the utilization of single stage thoracotomy as an operative procedure of choice for hydatid cysts of right lung and liver.
