Radiological Examinations

Cystic echinococcosis (CE), also known as “hydatid disease” (HD), is a zoonotic infection caused by the larval stage of Echinococcus granulosus, which infects humans as intermediate hosts through the orofecal route. Carried by the intestinal venous blood, the embryos released by the eggs of the tapeworms can reach every organ, especially the liver, turning into a hydatid cyst. Usually asymptomatic, the cysts can be incidentally detected through radiological examinations performed for other reasons. We show an unusual case of superinfection of a hydatid cyst with typical radiological features of inactivity (WHO-type CE5) with an even rarer skin fistulization passing through a subcutaneous-abdominal abscess involving the right iliac muscle.

Hepatic Involvement

An unusual case of Echinococcus oligarthrus infestation of the submandibular salivary gland is reported. Echinococcus oligarthrus is a rare variant of the Echinococcus species affecting humans. To the best of our knowledge only one case of submandibular hydatid cyst caused by Echinococcus oligarthrus has been reported. A 28-year-old female patient was admitted with a progressively increasing swelling in the left submandibular region of four years’ duration. There was no pulmonary or hepatic involvement. The present case of submandibular hydatid cyst caused by Echinococcus oligarthrus is of interest because of the unusual site of the disease.

Histopathologic Findings

Muscle hydatidosis is rare, accounting only for 3–5% of all cases. We present an unusual case of a primary hydatid cyst found in the soleus muscle of a 42-year-old woman, presenting as an enlarging soft-tissue mass for 6 months associated with pain. The hydatid cyst was confined into muscle, without affecting the bone. En block surgical excision of the cyst was undertaken. Histopathologic findings confirmed the diagnosis. No recurrence occurred during the follow-up period of 8 months. Skeletal muscle echinococcosis should be considered in the differential diagnosis of limb masses, especially in endemic countries. A meticulous history taking and MR imaging is essential, while pericystectomy is an effective method of treatment.
