Abstract:
Hydatid cyst is a zoonosis that frequently affects the liver, which is endemic in several countries such as Morocco. The hepatic hydatidosis can be complicated by angiocholitis, currently, the treatment of choice is endoscopic retrograde cholangio-pancreatography with sphincterotomy. We report two clinical cases of angiocholitis on hepatic hydatid cyst fistulised in the main bile duct which were treated endoscopically with a favourable outcome. Early diagnosis and adequate management can improve the prognosis of these patients.
