“…When recurrent disease occurs, additional surgeries are likely associated with increased rates of operative morbidity and mortality (35) . Recurrence occurs due to inadequate cyst removal or previously undetected cysts (36) . In the current study, no recurrence of cysts was reported during the 7-year follow-up period for the 17 patients in Group III, who underwent a partial cystectomy and omentoplasty.…”

Introduction: Hydatidosis is the result of infection with the larval stages of some species of the genus Echinococcus. Treatment approaches for hydatid cysts include the use of albendazole, surgery, and/or medico-surgical procedures. The choice of the therapeutic surgical approach depends on the cyst number and localization, surgeon expertise, and presence of complications. The present study aimed to compare the outcomes of the following therapeutic approaches for the treatment of hepatic hydatid cysts: pericystectomy; the puncture, aspiration, injection, and reaspiration (PAIR) technique; and the PAIR technique followed by deroofi ng, evacuation of cysts, and omentoplasty. Methods: The 54 patients were divided into 3 groups: Group I (14 patients) who underwent pericystectomy, Group II (23 patients) who underwent the PAIR technique, and Group III (17 patients) who underwent the PAIR technique followed by deroofi ng and omentoplasty. The diagnosis of hydatid cysts was based on serological testing using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, abdominal ultrasound, and parasitological examination of the cyst contents. Morbidity, mortality, length of hospital stay, recurrence, and postoperative complications were evaluated. Results: Postoperative bleeding, infection, and recurrence were reported in Groups I and II; Group III did not experience postoperative infection and had shorter hospital stays. Recurrence and postoperative complications did not occur in Group III. Conclusions: The partial surgical procedure with deroofi ng, evacuation of the cysts, and omentoplasty, as performed in the present study, is recommended as a safe and effective method for elimination of the entire parasite with minimal possibility for intra-peritoneal spillage.

“…This is particularly well illustrated by the capacity of the parasite for indefinite perpetuation in the larval stage by the passage of protoscoleces or germinal layer material in rodents (secondary hydatidosis; Howell and Smyth, 1995). In AE caused by the metacestode of E. multilocularis, the proliferating larval parasite has an infiltrative capacity to establish distant foci of infection due to the distribution via blood or lymph of detached germinal cells (Ali-Khan et al, 1983;Ammann and Eckert, 1996;Eckert et al, 1983;Mehlhorn et al, 1983, Fig. 7; and see later).…”

“…Proliferation continues indefinitely although there are few if any protoscoleces produced (Moro and Schantz, 2009;Rausch and Wilson, 1973). The larval mass proliferates peripherally and at the same time regressive changes occur centrally (Ammann and Eckert, 1996;Moro and Schantz, 2009). Thus a progressively enlarging mass of necrotic tissue with a relatively thin zone of viable proliferating parasite is produced.…”

“…Antihelmintik tedavide albendazol ya da mebendazol gibi benzimidazoller kullanı-lır. Doz ve tedavi süresi olarak standartize edilmiş bir süreç olmamakla birlikte, haftalık dinlenme aralarıyla aylık kürler halinde 3-6 ay devam edilmesi önerilmektedir (7,8). Ameliyat sonrası dönemde cerrahi iyileşmenin hemen ardından hastamıza albendazole tedavisi başlandı ve 3 ay süre ile devam ettirildi.…”

On iki yıl önce kist hidatik tanısı ile sol alt lobektomi ve splenektomi yapılmış olan yirmi dört yaşındaki erkek hasta, sol yan ağrısı şikâyeti ile başvurdu. Yapı-lan radyolojik incelemelerde, üzüm salkımı görüntüsü olarak tariflenebilecek görüntüler elde edildi. Hastaya bu halde nüks kist hidatik ön tanısı ile sol eksploratrif torakotomi yapıldı. Üst lob altında, diafragma ile çok sıkı yapışıklıklar geliştirmiş ve içi yüzlerce kız vezikülle dolu büyük bir poş bulundu. Poş temizlendiğinde diafragmanın orta kısmının da erimiş olduğu ve buradan batına açılan bir ağızla benzer bir kist poşunun da retroperitoneal bölgede yerleşmiş olduğu tespit edildi. Diafragma açılarak retroperitoneal poş da uygun şekilde boşaltılıp, temizlendi. Hasta postoperatif 16. ayda sorunsuz olarak takip edilmektedir. Anahtar Sözcükler:Hidatik kist, intratorasik ekstrapulmoner, kistektomi, albendazol.A 24-year-old male, who had a history of left lower lobectomy and splenectomy due to hydatid cyst 12 years ago, applied to our clinic with a severe pain localized in the left hemithorax that had continued for approximately six months. Radiological studies displayed interesting images resembling "a bunch of grapes". An exploratory thoracotomy was performed with an initial diagnosis of recurrent hydatid cyst. Beneath the left upper lobe, a giant pleural pouch with tight adhesions extending to the diaphragm was present. Inside the pouch, hundreds of daughter cysts were observed. In the middle of the diaphragm there was a dissolved area and with an opening from this point, a similar pouch located at the retroperitoneal space was found. With a transdiaphragmatic approach, both pouches were drained and cleaned appropriately. At the 16th month of postoperative follow-up, patient had no complaints.
