Abstract

Hydatid disease is endemic in Turkey. Although pulmonary hydatid disease may be diagnosed by clinical and radiological findings, atypical radiological presentation may lead to misdiagnosis or delays in diagnosis. 22-year-old female was admitted with hemoptysis. Computed tomography of the thorax showed mass lesion with central necrosis and atelectasis in the anterior segment of the right upper lobe. Bronchoscopy revealed whitish-yellow gelatinous membrane in the anterior segment of the right upper lobe. Bronchial washing and forceps biopsy obtained diagnosis of hydatid diseases with cuticles.

Özet

Hidatik hastalığı Türkiye'de endemiktir. Pulmoner hidatik hastalığı tanısı klinik ve radyolojik bulgularla konulabilmesine rağmen, atipik radyolojik görünüm tanıda gecikmelere ve yanlış tanı konulmasına neden olabilir. Yirmi iki yaşında bayan hasta hemoptizi ile başvurdu. Bilgisayarlı toraks tomografisinde sağ üst lobun anterior segmentinde atelektazi ve merkezinde nekroz içeren kitle lezyon saptandı. Bronkoskopi ile sağ üst lobun anterior segmentinde beyazımsı-sarı renkte ielatinöz membran görüldü. Bronşiyal yıkama ve forseps biyopsi ile hidatik hastalığının tanısı konuldu.
