“…Hydatidosis is an endemic disease that poses a public health problem in certain areas in the world where livestock and sheep are farmed, particularly in the Mediterranean, the Middle East and South America [4]. This parasitosis is caused by the larva of TaeniaEchinococcusgranulosus which lives in the digestive tubetract of dogs, domestic or wild, and other carnivorous animals of which they are the definitive hosts.…”

“…The results of microscopic analyzes of needle biopsy are not guaranteed, especially if the patients have received medical treatment, and the biopsy area must be resected within the time of surgery [4]. Various serological tests may assist the diagnosis of echinococcosis.…”

“…The sensitivity and specificity of serological tests are not known in patients with soft tissue echinococcosis. This serology may be useful for monitoring the treatment when it is positive [4]. The treatment of muscular echinococcosis is surgical [4].…”

Muscular involvement with Echinococcusgranulosus is rare, even in endemic countries where the frequency is estimated to be less than 3%, particularly in the countries of the Mediterranean basin, North Africa and Latin America. We report the rare observation of a hydatid cyst of the internal thigh room in a 57-year-old patient of rural origin and who has no notable sickness antecedents and was hospitalized in our department for the exploration of a tumefaction of the internal surface of the left thigh appeared gradually and insidiously for 3 years. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed an oval mass evoking an intramuscular hydatid cyst and its relationship to neighboring structures. He underwent surgical excision under locoregional anesthesia. Solitary hydatid localization in muscle tissue is exceptional, but it is useful to know that its diagnosis is often delayed, its treatment is surgical, but recurrences are possible.

“…Dans le cas présenté, la localisation musculaire se situait au niveau de la loge antérieure de la cuisse. L'IRM est l'examen de choix en pathologie hydatique des parties molles [5]. Elle permet, grâce à sa haute résolution en contraste, de mieux étudier l'extension locorégionale de la lésion et ses rapports avec les pédicules vasculo-nerveux, tout en offrant une analyse minutieuse des parois kystiques.…”

“…Après un recul d'une année, la surveillance clinique, sérologique et échographique n'a pas objectivé de récidive.Discussion:-L'hydatidose est une maladie endémique qui pose un problème de santé publique dans certaines régions du monde où s'effectue l'élevage du bétail et des moutons, notamment dans le pourtour méditerranéen, le Moyen-Orient et l'Amérique du Sud[4].Cette parasitose est causée par la larve de Taenia Echinococcus granulosus qui vit dans le tube digestif des chiens, domestiques ou sauvages, et d'autres animaux carnivores dont ils sont les hôtes définitifs. Les humains en sont les hôtes intermédiaires accidentels lorsqu'ils ingèrent des oeufs de Taenia[5].…”
