Spinal Hydatid Cyst Disease : Challenging Surgery - an Institutional Experience

Abstract: ObjectiveHydatid cyst disease is caused by the parasite Echinococcus granulosus. It is rarely seen in the vertebral system, occurring at a rate of 0.2–1%. The aim of this study is to present 12 spinal hydatid cyst cases, and propose a new type of drainage of the cyst. MethodsTwelve cases of spinal hydatid cysts, surgical operations, multiple operations, chronic recurrences, and spinal hydatic cyst excision methods are discussed in the context of the literature. Patients are operated between 2005 and 2016. All … Show more

“… 88 Although variable and combined surgical approaches have been reported, posterior decompression by laminectomy and spinal fusion with or without thoracotomy for thoracic spine echinococcosis is the most common. 24 , 25 , 43 46 , 85 , 86 , 89 , 90 The purpose of the surgery is total removal of the cyst without rupture. However, complete clearance is difficult due to the invasive diffuse spread within the bone and the spinal canal.…”

“…Thorough irrigation of the surgical area with hypertonic saline is recommended to prevent recurrences. 47 , 86 , 90 A novel type of drainage of spinal hydatid cyst was proposed by Caglar et al 90 During surgery, the surgeon places a two-way drainage catheter inside the cyst; the distal end catheter is placed outside the patient. Postoperatively, the cyst is injected with chlorhexidine solution (0.04% Chx-Glu).…”

“…Наиболее частыми вариантами вертебрального поражения являются кистозный (возбудитель -E. granulosus) и альвеолярный (возбудитель -E. multilocularis) [6,7]. Среди отделов позвоночника чаще всего поражается грудной (45-50%), реже вовлекаются пояснично-крестцовый (25-32%) и поясничный отделы (до 15%) [8].…”
