Background. Hydatid cysts can be found in any organ. In adults, the liver and lungs are the most common locations; hydatid cysts in the pulmonary artery are rare.Clinical Case. We present the case of an 86-year-old female with a history of hepatic hydatid cyst since 2012, who presented with complaints of chronic productive cough, yellowish-green sputum, and dyspnea. CT and MRI showed multiseptate hydatid cysts in the right pulmonary artery.

This case study is a rare example of cardiac hydatidosis in a high-income country, where a middle-aged man presented with a ruptured right ventricular cyst causing anaphylaxis, pulmonary emboli and dissemination of Echinococcus throughout the lung. He survived the cyst rupture and underwent cardiac surgery but had incomplete resection and experienced progressive cardiopulmonary hydatidosis despite antihelminthic therapy. As a result, he experienced an array of cardiopulmonary sequelae over his lifespan. This case report highlights rare clinical manifestations of hydatid disease and potential complications of its treatment.
