    Abstract:
    A questionnaire sent out to eight medical college hospitals in Bangladesh revealed the observations of 18 cases of hydatid disease. Seven affected the lungs, another seven the liver, one both, in three the localization was on or behind the peritoneum. Of seven the nature was suspected beforehand, of eleven confirmed after exploration. The conditions for echinococcal disease are often favourable in Bangladesh. Our results contradict the common opinion that it is rare.
