  • Title: Hydatid cyst of the pancreas--a case report in a child.
    Author: Brown RA, Millar AJ, Steiner Z, Krige JE, Burkimsher D, Cywes S.
    Journal: Eur J Pediatr Surg; 1995 Apr; 5(2):121-3. PubMed ID: 7612583.
    Abstract:
    Primary pancreatic hydatid disease is rare. The diagnosis may be difficult when the presentation is that of an unexplained epigastric mass, despite suggestive radiological and ultrasonic features. We describe a 12-year-old girl in whom the definitive diagnosis was only made at repeat operation, when appropriate surgical therapy was effected.
