Localization of hydatidosis in the musculoskeletal system is a rare occurrence, and generally involves the skeleton. A case reported here in which the muscular localization of hydatidosis followed hepatic and pulmonary localizations treated surgically. 1) Muscular localization seems to be related to the regional circulation; 2) diagnosis may be done by echography, CT scan, RMI and immunological tests with ELISA and RIA methods; 3) basic steps during surgery, which constitutes the treatment of choice, involve the prevention of anaphylactic shock and the inactivation of the cyst; 4) chemotherapy is limited to cases in which it is not possible to perform radical surgery, to the prevention of postoperative recurrence, and to cases which cannot be treated surgically.
In the interim from 1970 to 1974, the authors had occasion to encounter several patients with symptoms of hydatid disease in the chest, particularly with pleural effusion not always easily differentiated from effusions other etiology. This pertains especially to hydatid disease of the liver with a perforation through the diaphragm and clinic and roentgen findings revealing only thoracic signs. All the clinical diagnosis in cases of patients who had undergone an operation, were confirmed by patho-anatomic findings.
