    A rare pelvic hydatid cyst was found in a 36-year-old woman. Surgical removal confirmed the diagnosis, highlighting the importance of considering parasitic infections in adnexal masses.

    Area of Science:

    • Gynecology
    • Parasitology
    • Radiology

    Background:

    • Hydatid cysts are parasitic infections typically affecting the liver and lungs.
    • Pelvic hydatid cysts are exceptionally rare, posing diagnostic challenges.

    Observation:

    • A 36-year-old woman presented with a right adnexal cystic mass and concurrent cystic liver lesions.
    • Laparotomy revealed a large, densely adhered right paraovarian cyst.
    • Histopathology confirmed the cyst wall's characteristic cuticular layer.

    Findings:

    • The pelvic mass was diagnosed as a hydatid cyst.
    • The cystic liver lesion was identified as a hepatic hemangioma via MRI.
    • Surgical excision was performed for the pelvic hydatid cyst.

    Implications:

    • This case underscores the need to consider ectopic hydatid disease in gynecological evaluations.
    • Accurate diagnosis requires a combination of imaging and histopathological analysis.
    • Management involves surgical intervention and awareness of potential co-existing pathologies.
