    Abstract:
    Hydatid cyst of the heart is an uncommon lesion. Reported is the case of a 24-year-old female patient admitted with a history of chest pain and hemoptysis, and a mass lesion in the right atrium. Investigations and intraoperative intervention revealed the mass to be a hydatid cyst located in the right atrium, along with hydatid cysts of the liver and both lungs. The right atrial mass was successfully removed under cardiopulmonary bypass.
