Abstract

Hydatid cysts rarely involve cardiac cavities and are mostly seen in the right chambers of the heart. The location of hydatid cysts in the left chambers of the heart is very harmful in terms of cerebrovascular risk. Herein, we report a case of a left atrial hydatid cyst which coexisted with a hydatid cyst in the liver. The patient was successfully operated on and discharged from the hospital on the fifth day after admission

Özet

Hidatik kistler nadien kalp boşluklarını tutabilir ve daha çok sağ kalp boşıklarında görülebilir. Hidatik kistlerin kalbin sol boşluklarını tutması serebrovasküler olay riski açısından çok tehlikelidir. Bu vakada biz karaciğer hidatik kistine eşlik eden sol atriyal hidatik kist vakasını sunduk. Hasta başarıyla ameliyat edildi ve hastaneye başvurunun 5. gününde salahla taburcu edildi.
