Abstract

Hydatid cysts can be found in almost every structure in human body. Thus they can mimic numerous pathologies. Serological analyses are the best assistants in the diagnosis of hydatid cysts. But as serological investigations have limited sensitivity and specificity, they might misdirect our diagnosis. Lungs are the most common involved organ in this parasitic infection. But the brain, muscles, kidneys, bones, heart, pancreas, and rarely the retroperitoneum have also been reported to be involved. An unusual case of a sero-negative hydatid cyst located in the retroperitoneum presenting with lower urinary tract symptoms is reported in this paper.

Özet

Kist hidatik vücuttaki tüm yapıları tutabilen bir hastalıktır. Bu nedenle bir çok farklı patolojiyi taklit edebilir. Şüpheli vakalarda kist hidatid tanısını koyarken yararlandığımız en iyi araç serolojik analizlerdir. Ancak serolojik incelemelerin sensitivitesi ve spesifitesi sınırlıdır ve tanılarımızda bizi yanlış yönlendirebilir. Bu parazitik enfeksiyonun en sık tutulum gösterdiği organ akciğer olmasına rağmen beyin, kas, böbrek, kemik, kalp, pankreas ve nadiren retroperitoneal tutulumunda bulunduğu bildirilmiştir. Bu makalede retroperitoneal lokalizasyonda bulunan büyük bir ekinokokal kistin nadir bir prezentasyonu olarak alt üriner sistem semptomları ile başvurusu bildirilmiştir
