    Abstract:
    Cardiac hydatid disease is rare. Its dificult diagnosis is based on a series of arguments in which hydatid serology and imaging play a predominant role. A young patient with multiple cardiac hydatid cysts was investigated by 2D echocardiography, transoesophageal echocardiography and magnetic resonance imaging. This case illustrates the value of the various noninvasive imaging techniques in the diagnosis of cardiac hydatid disease and emphasizes the importance of surgical treatment before the development of complications.
