Hepatic hydatid disease during pregnancy

Abstract

Hydatid cysts most commonly arise from infection from Echinococcus granulosus and their most common site is the liver. The diagnosis of liver hydatid cysts is not difficult but management modalities of pregnant women pose some problems. Although both medical and surgical treatments are available, there is no consensus. In this article, we report a hepatic hydatid disease in a pregnant woman who was managed with albendazole therapy.
