Abstract

The present study highlights the Multiple pulmonary hydatidosis with cardiovascular localization. Cardiovascular localization remains exceptional with an estimated frequency between 0.5 and 2% of all hydatid localizations. Multislice CT with cardiac synchronization, as illustrated by our observation, allows an accurate morphological and extension assessment thanks to its very good spatial resolution and the possibilities of multiplanar reconstructions. Medical antiparasitic treatment is the treatment of choice for inoperable patients due to too many hydatid cysts, or debilitated terrain, or as a complementary treatment to surgery when there is a risk of dissemination.
