English Abstract
Journal Article
[Multiple cerebral hydatid disease].
Medicina 1994
A case of hydatid cerebral disease with multiple cysts is reported with the purpose of presenting this unusual form of hydatid neurological involvement and to discuss some aspects of the pathogenesis and treatment. In this patient, the liver hydatid cyst surgery two years prior to the development of multiple pulmonary and cerebral cysts suggests a vascular invasion of oncoesphere during the hepatic surgery with hematological dissemination to the lungs and brain. The multiplicity and deep localization of the cerebral cysts prevented the performance of a definitive surgical resection. The multiple percutaneous drainage of the cysts was useful in this case to reduce the endocraneal hypertension and to achieve a neurological improvement. Albendazole has proved of benefit as a chemo-therapeutic agent in these cases and Magnetic Resonance Imaging has proven useful for surgical planning.
