“…In this situation, aspiration of the cyst associated with resection of the pericyst is the therapeutic alternative to prevent rupture [19]. The place of anti-hydatid chemotherapy is to be discussed in hydatid cysts of the musculoskeletal system given the low diffusion in the cyst [20]. However, its efficacy in monotherapy is between 30 and 40%, hence its indication in inoperable forms may be appropriate [21].…”

Cystic echinococcosis is an infectious disease secondary to the contamination by Echinococcus granulosus. Muscle localization is very rare, and is characterized by atypical clinical presentation and the absence of pathognomonic signs, leading to diagnosis delays. MRI is the method of choice for diagnosis of soft tissue hydatid cysts, and surgery remains the main curative treatment. We report a case of hydatid cyst of the adductor magnus muscle in a 24-year-old young man, along with a literature review.

“…Due to their poor diffusion in the cystic fluid (21), medical treatment with imidazole derivatives (albendazole) in solitary locations of the musculoskeletal system remains debated, and especially reserved for inoperable cases or in addition to surgery when the cyst is complicated to rupture (12; 23). Long-term clinical, radiological and biological monitoring (every 3 months, for 2 years) is necessary in order to detect local or distant recurrence (24).…”

Primary hydatid disease of musculoskletal system represents 1–4 % of all locations, and can take on the appearance of a soft tissue tumor. We present here a case of 62 year old man who developped a soft swelling of Posterior aspect of the thigh with distal sciatica of the left lower limb. Ultrasonography reinforced by MRI suspected an hydatid cysts diagnosis. Serologic test (ELISA) was positive. Patient underwent total surgical removal of all cystic formations, with adjunctive postoperative Mebendazole chemotherapy (15 mg/kg/day) for three months. At 03 years follow-up, patient was free of pain and had total functional recovery without local recurrence of the disease.
