  • Title: Interventricular septal hydatid cyst.
    Author: Kurtoglu N, Ermeydan C, Akdemir R, Basaran Y, Dindar I.
    Journal: Echocardiography; 2000 Oct; 17(7):693-5. PubMed ID: 11107208.
    Abstract:
    In this report we describe an unusual case of cardiac echinococcus located in the interventricular septum invaded by a cystic mass. It was demonstrated by using transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) and confirmed with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Surgical excision (cystopericystectomy) was performed on the patient as a curative therapy. Early recurrence was observed despite additional medical therapy with albendazole.
