    Abstract:
    Three cases of cardiac hydatidosis are described, with emphasis on electro-vectorcardiographic, policardiographic and angiographic data. The cysts, plurime in two patients, were localized in different sites: in the first patient only one cyst was present in the interventricular septum; in the second one there were cysts in the right atrial wall and in the diaphragmatic ventricular wall; in the last one a multilocular disrupted sac involved the left ventricular wall partially occupying the left ventricular cavity. Multiple pericardial cysts were also present in this patient. The usefulness of different invasive and non invasive techniques is here discussed regarding topographic diagnosis of cardiac hydatidosis.
