  • Title: Interventricular septal hydatid cyst: Transesophageal echocardiography as a therapeutic tool during bypass.
    Author: Jain PK, Malik V, Divya A, Narula J, Hote M.
    Journal: Ann Card Anaesth; 2015; 18(3):421-4. PubMed ID: 26139754.
    Abstract:
    Cystic echinococcosis (hydatid disease) arising from infestation with a larval or adult form of the Echinococcus granulosus tapeworm is endemic in certain states of India, but affecting interventricular septum (IVS) solitarily is a scarce phenomenon. We present a rare case of transesophageal echocardiography guided management of IVS hydatid cyst even during cardiopulmonary bypass, which presented with a rather unusual complaint of repeated syncope.
