Abstract

Although hydatid cysts are an endemic infestation, experience in surgical management of pregnant women is quite limited. This report aims to share the results and experiences gained from the management and surgery of a woman with a second trimester pregnancy who presented with asphyxia because of the rupture of a giant bilateral hydatid cyst.
