A Rare Combination of Cardiac Hydatid Cyst and Pulmonary Hydatidosis in a Child.
World Journal for Pediatric & Congenital Heart Surgery 2024 March 12

Cardiac hydatidosis is rare. Herein, we report a case of interventricular septum hydatid cyst with lung involvement in a four-year-old child.

In spite of its rarity, the combination of cardiac and pulmonary hydatidosis can be managed with a single operation.
