Coexistence of Giant Hydatid Cyst and Hepatocellular Carcinoma: A Case Report and Literature Review.
Iran J Parasitol
January 2024
Department of Radiology, Karaman Training and Research Hospital, Karaman, Turkey.
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.
