  • Title: Primary bilateral intrapelvic hydatid cyst presenting with adnexal cystic mass: a case report.
    Author: Alimohamadi S, Dehghan A, Neghab N.
    Journal: Acta Med Iran; 2011; 49(10):694-6. PubMed ID: 22071648.
    Abstract:
    Hydatid disease, caused by Echinococcus granulosus, is a common parasitic infection of the liver. Disseminated intra-abdominal hydatid disease may occur with the rupture of the hydatid cyst into the peritoneal cavity, producing secondary echinococcosis. But primary hydatid cyst in the pelvis is rare. We report a case of bilateral hydatid cyst of the pelvis in a 53 years old woman presented with adnexal cystic mass.
