    Author: Zampoli M, Zar H.
    Journal: Pediatr Pulmonol; 2007 Dec; 42(12):1229-32. PubMed ID: 17948284.
    Abstract:
    Pulmonary hydatid cysts in children frequently develop complications such as infection and air leaks. Surgery combined with medical therapy remains the standard form of treatment. We report a 7-year-old child who developed rupture of a large pulmonary hydatid cyst following chest trauma; conservative management resulted in successful expulsion of the cyst.
