Hydatid cysts in muscle: a modified percutaneous treatment approach

Abstract: Percutaneous drainage without re-aspiration is simple, easy to apply, low cost, repeatable, and does not require hospitalization. There have been no reported deaths associated with the procedure and morbidity is very low. When the technique is applied properly, relapses do not occur. With its low complication rate and its suitability for outpatient treatment, this method can be an alternative to surgery or puncture, aspiration, injection, and re-aspiration (PAIR) in selected patients.

“…However, this technique has been used for solid organ hydatid cysts. To our knowledge, there is only one study in which a modification of PAIR (percutaneous drainage without re-aspiration) has been used for the treatment of muscular hydatid cyst in the literature [9]. Herein, we report the first case of muscular hydatid cyst treated with PAIR technique combined with albendazole.…”

“…Calcifications were not observed by radiography in our case. The use of USG is proposed in muscular HC diagnosis [7,19,21,22] . In USG, unilocular cysts, which contain daughter cysts, echogenic hydatid sand, a floating detached laminated membrane, and multivesicular cysts, may be observed [19,22] .…”

“…In muscular HC treatment, en bloc resection and albendazole treatment are recommended as first line treatment [5] . The protocols for treating muscular HC by discharging the cyst with the percutaneous needle aspiration technique have been previously defined [6,7] . Our study aims at presenting the result of the treatment we applied and the percutaneous needle aspiration method in treating a primary HC case located between the gastrocnemius and soleus muscles in the cruris posterior, which caused circulation disorders in the patient's lower extremity.…”

“…Although a discussion of the optimal therapy for various ganglion and synovial cysts is beyond the scope of this review, there is some evidence to support the use of guided aspiration prior to or in lieu of surgical therapy [44] . For infectious indications, the use of ultrasound for both diagnostic and therapeutic purposes is also well described [45][46][47][48][49][50][51][52] . Ultrasound-guided aspiration or drainage catheter insertion has been successfully used to obtain fluid samples for microbial cultures as well as therapeutic drainage of collections [46][47][48][49][50][51] .…”

Ultrasound-guided aspiration or drainage catheter insertion has been successfully used to obtain fluid samples for microbial cultures as well as therapeutic drainage of collections [46][47][48][49][50][51] . There is also evidence supporing the use of ultrasound-guided techniques in the critically ill where transporting patients between different hospital locations may be either dangerous or not at all feasible [50] .…”
