  • Title: Hydatid disease of spine. A case report.
    Author: Perani D, Scotti G, Scialfa G, D'Angelo V.
    Journal: J Neurosurg Sci; 1983; 27(1):55-8. PubMed ID: 6886807.
    Abstract:
    Hydatid disease of the primary type may involve CNS and bone. Compression of the spinal cord and spinal nerve roots, caused by hydatid material from an affected vertebra is a rare condition which makes surgical decompression mandatory. We report the neuroradiological findings in a case of vertebral hydatidosis, confirmed by surgical appearance and hystological examination.
