چکیده
|
Hydatid disease is a parasitic infection caused by echinococcus granulosus. cardiac involvement is rare especially without liver and lungs tissue involvement. we describe a 12-year-old male patient referred to mofid children's hospital, tehran, iran in jul 2020 due to chronic pericardial effusion and suspected tuberculosis infection from afghanistan. echocardiography revealed a cystic lesion in the interventricular septum. thoracic and abdominal computed tomography showed no similar cystic lesion in the lungs and liver. the patient underwent open-heart surgery for cystectomy and medical treatment with albendazole. histological examination confirmed hydatid cyst diagnosis. the patient was discharged in good condition and oral albendazole was continued.
