Imaging in Hydatid Disease: Pictorial Review
Abstract
Hydatid disease (HD) can affect any organ, but most commonly involves liver parenchyma. Complications like rupture/infection can further complicate the scenario. Familiarity with variable imaging appearances of HD is very helpful in making the diagnosis. This may also aid in diagnosis of difficult or atypical cases. We retrospectively reviewed radiologic findings of HD in 11 patients, who presented to our department in last 1 year. There was involvement of the lung, pleura, mediastinum, liver, abdominal cavity, pelvic cavity, ovary, splenic parenchyma, renal parenchyma, spinal cord, and brain, with variable imaging features.
