Introduction: Although giant cystic pheochromocytoma and paraganglioma (PPGL) are uncommon, they can be life-threatening when it occurs. Unfortunately, prior case reports have shown that giant cystic PPGLs are highly susceptible to diagnostic errors. Therefore, this study aimed to explore giant cystic PPGLs by comparing them with non-cystic PPGLs, defining the clinical features of the affected patients, and analyzing the characteristics of misdiagnosis and mistreatment associated with PPGLs.

From a global perspective, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and hydatid cyst disease are both common; however, the endemic and zoonotic nature of hydatid cysts (due to larvae) makes the simultaneous detection of the two conditions a rare occurrence. In this case report, in a 43-year-old male patient, we aim to draw attention to the potential coexistence of HCC and liver hydatid cysts by presenting a case in which HCC tissue was detected in the cyst wall-removed by emergency surgery due to cyst perforation. Hydatid lesions in the liver may exhibit tumor-like growth characteristics.
