Abstract

Hydatid cyst disease is a parasitic infection caused by larval stage of Echinococcus granulosus
affecting mainly the liver. Diagnosis of hepatic hydatidosis depends on clinical presentations, serological
assays and radiological findings. The present study included 40 patients suffered from
hepatic hydatid cysts. They were classified into 4 groups according to therapeutic protocols they
received. All cases were subjected to serological assay, radiological examination to categorize
cysts and open surgical intervention for treatment. Samples of hydatid fluid and cysts were examined
regarding parasitological, morphometric and histopathological aspects. Viability of cyst
contents was assessed using eosin stain. All samples were cultivated for microbiological assessment.
Viability was 95-100% in GI (no previous treatment), 50-85% in GII, 25-45% in GIII
(single PAIR technique and single Albendazole course) and 0-10% in GIV (repeated PAIR and
medical treatment). Enterococci and Staphylococcus aureus were detected in one sample
in GI and 8 samples in GIV respectively.
