    This case study details diffuse hydatid disease affecting both the lung and liver. Surgical intervention led to improved organ function, suggesting surgery as the recommended treatment for this rare condition.

    Area of Science:

    • Medicine
    • Parasitology
    • Surgical Pathology

    Background:

    • Hydatid disease, caused by Echinococcus granulosus, typically affects the liver.
    • Co-occurrence of lung and liver hydatid disease is reported in approximately 20% of cases.
    • Diffuse presentation of hydatid disease in both organs is exceptionally rare.

    Observation:

    • A patient presented with diffuse hydatid disease involving both the lung and liver.
    • Both lung and liver functions were significantly impaired due to the widespread parasitic cysts.
    • Surgical intervention included liver cyst resection and pulmonary cystectomy.

    Findings:

    • The surgical management of diffuse lung and liver hydatid disease was technically feasible.
    • Postoperative recovery was uncomplicated.

  • Significant restoration of liver function and improvement in lung function were observed.

    • Implications:

    • Surgical management is recommended for diffuse hydatid disease of the lung and liver.
    • Medical treatment is considered ineffective for this presentation.
    • Early surgical intervention may improve patient outcomes and organ function recovery.
