Abstract:
We report a 57-year-old man presenting with symptoms of sharp pricking, exertional retrosternal chest pain multiple times, each episode lasting for a few seconds. On evaluation, the ECG of the patient showed normal sinus rhythm with T wave inversions in leads V1-V3. Troponin T test was negative. Transthoracic echocardiography showed a globular mass in the interventricular septum. Cardiac MRI was suspicious of the lesion to be a hydatid cyst. Surgical excision of the lesion followed by histopathology was confirmatory of hydatid cyst.
