“…Treatment of pulmonary cysts should be considered once the source of infection has been controlled. Mortality depends on the severity of PH and parenchymal hydatid dissemination [ 10 ]. Albendazole-based medical treatment is indicated as an adjunct to surgery or on its own in cases of chronic emboli, extensive swarming throughout the pulmonary arterial bed or where surgery is contraindicated [ 10 ].…”

“…Thus, the discovery of hydatid emboli in pulmonary arteries can be made in case of acute PAH, anaphylactic shock, or even sudden death 20 . However, it can be incidental (as in case 6) when carrying out an etiological assessment of an unusual hydatid location 21 . Elsewhere, the clinical manifestations of PE of hydatic origin are not different from those of embolism of other origin.…”

“…In the first line, the treatment of HPE is based on surgery 21 . Our attitude was to first eliminate the source of emboli, then unclog pulmonary arteries, and lastly treat some accessible locations during the same surgical session.…”

Introduction Hydatid pulmonary embolism (HPE) is rare but remains an etiology that needs to be considered and kept in mind, especially in endemic areas, as regards nonthrombotic embolism. Methods Between 2000 and 2014, 10 patients were treated in our department for the presence of hydatid material in the pulmonary arterial circulation. Through these 10 cases, we try to assess the radioclinical characteristics and results of the surgical treatment. Results The study included six men and four women, average age 28 years. Discovery of HPE was made following the exploration of cardiorespiratory symptoms in nine cases and was incidental in a single patient. Computed tomography angiography (CTA) of the chest directly visualized the hydatid material in the pulmonary arteries in nine cases. Surgery consisted of an embolectomy under cardiopulmonary bypass in nine cases. This embolectomy was preceded by the treatment of an embolic hydatid cyst (HC) in seven cases (HCs of the right heart chambers in six cases and a liver HC ruptured in the inferior vena cava in one case), whereas for only one patient, who presented a HC pedunculated in the right ventricle and protruding into the pulmonary artery, the cure of the cardiac location was sufficient. Only one patient died on the third postoperative day. Conclusion Endoluminal hydatid involvement of pulmonary arteries is extremely rare. CTA chest has an important contribution to the positive diagnosis. Treatment is surgical when the patient's condition allows it.

Le kyste hydatique (KH) est une pathologie encore endémique dans plusieurs pays notamment dans notre contexte marocain. L’atteinte pulmonaire vient au second plan après l’atteinte hépatique. Elle se caractérise par la richesse des tableaux anotomo-cliniques et la possibilité de localisations multiples dans le parenchyme pulmonaire, prédominant essentiellement aux bases. Nous rapportons le cas de Mr J.M, âgé de 54 ans, admis pour suspicion de kyste hydatique pulmonaire devant une douleur thoracique évoluant depuis 6 mois et un épisode d’hydatidoptysie. La radiographie thoracique a objectivé une image particulière de double localisation apicale illustrant en un même cliché des différents stades évolutifs du kyste hydatique pulmonaire. Le diagnostic était confirmé par la TDM thoracique et la sérologie hydatique. La localisation multiple du kyste hydatique pulmonaire n’est pas une situation rare dans les pays à forte endémie hydatique. Notre cas clinique rapporte une double localisation apicale inhabituelle du kyste hydatique et à des stades évolutifs différents.
