The liver is the most common site affected by hydatid disease. Hepatic hydatid cyst (HHC) with cystoduodenal fistula is an unusual and infrequent complication. We present a 48-year-male diagnosed with an HHC with cystobiliary communication (CBC) and cystoduodenal fistula. The patient underwent partial cystectomy. Intraoperative demonstration of CBC was done with injection propofol, followed by primary closure of the CBC. The duodenal fistula was closed primarily with an omental patch, also known as a Graham patch. The patient improved well without any complications, and there was no recurrence of the symptoms for the subsequent five-month follow-up.
