  • Title: Intact endobronchial hydatid cyst: an unexpected bronchoscopic challenge.
    Author: Zamani A, Yosunkaya S.
    Journal: Asian Cardiovasc Thorac Ann; 2018 Jan; 26(1):60-62. PubMed ID: 28403624.
    Abstract:
    We describe a rare case of intact endobronchial hydatid cyst that posed a diagnostic challenge because of an unusual imaging manifestation (atelectasis) and unexpected bronchoscopic findings. Although the role of bronchoscopy in the management of pulmonary hydatid cyst is still controversial, 6 cases of complicated pulmonary hydatid cyst removed completely by suction through a fiberoptic bronchoscope have been reported so far. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first nonsurgically treated case of intact endobronchial hydatid cyst with an uneventful long-term follow-up.
