Introduction. Hydatid disease is a cyclozoonotic parasitic infestation caused by the cestodeEchinococcus granulosus. The cysts mainly arise in the liver (50 to 70%) or lung (20 to 30%), but any other organ can be involved, in abdominal and pelvic locations, as well as in other less common sites, which may make both diagnosis and treatment more complex. Isolated renal involvement is extremely rare.Case Presentation. We report a rare case of isolated renal hydatid disease in a 71-year-old man with a history of vague abdominal pain, anemia, fever, and microhematuria. Ultrasonographic examination revealed a complex cyst in the right kidney, including multiple smaller cysts with internal echoes. A magnetic resonance scan of the abdomen confirmed the findings, and hydatid cyst disease was diagnosed. Right nephrectomy was performed, and microscopic examination confirmed the diagnosis of hydatid cyst. Albendazole, 10 mg/kg per day, was given for 4 weeks (2 weeks preoperatively and 2 weeks postoperatively).Conclusion. Isolated primary hydatidosis of the kidney should always be considered in the differential diagnosis of any cystic renal mass, even in the absence of accompanying involvement of liver or other visceral organs.

A rare case of hydatid cyst of the left psoas muscle with a short account of the nosological, physiopathological and therapeutical aspects due to muscular echinococcosis is reported. The Authors particularly emphasize the diagnostic difficulties due to discrepancies between radiological imaging and serological data and specially recommend prudence in surgical management.

<p class="abstract">Ulnar hemimelia is a rare postaxial partial or complete longitudinal deficiency of ulna. It has an estimated incidence of 1/100,000-150,000 live births, with a male to female ratio of 3:2. There is usually ulnar deviation of hand and shortening of forearm. Radial head subluxation and fixed flexion deformity of the hand may be associated with it. Complex carpal, metacarpal, and digital abnormalities including absence of triquetrum, capitate and three fingered hand (tridactyly) are additional findings commonly found in association. Here, we present a case of a 17-year-old female with left sided ulnar club hand due to isolated partial ulnar aplasia.</p>

Abstract Background To enhance awareness of the clinical features and prevention of endotracheal myiasis. Case presentation A case of intratracheal myiasis is reported. A 61-year-old male patient with a history of laryngectomy was admitted to hospital due to tracheostomal hemorrhage of 3 h duration. Intratracheal myiasis was confirmed by bronchoscopy, and the patient underwent bronchoscopic intervention, which was complicated by a tracheal-esophageal fistula and resolved by endotracheal stenting. Twenty months after stent placement, the fistula had not healed. Conclusion Intratracheal myiasis has serious complications and is difficult to treat. For post-tracheostomy patients, healthcare providers and caregivers should pay attention to the care and monitoring of wounds and maintenance of a tidy, clean living environment to prevent intratracheal myiasis.

Head And Neck Masses

Background: Hydatid cyst is a zoonotic disease due to the infection with the larvae of Echinococcus granulosus. The liver and lungs (80%) are the main organs involved and rarely head and neck. Case Presentation: A 47-year-old Iranian man presented to our center complaining of sublingual inflammation for 8 months. Sonography revealed a cystic lesion of 4×5×6 cm within the tongue. CT-scan showed a well-defined and hypodense mass in the floor of the mouth. Cyst resection was performed with the probability of ranula. Pathology was suggestive of hydatid cyst. Further workups revealed liver involvement. Therefore, he was treated with albendazole for 2 months. Conclusion: The hydatid cyst in the head and neck is rare and the involvement of sublingual gland is extremely rare. However, in endemic areas, hydatid cyst should be considered in the differential diagnosis of head and neck masses.

<p class="abstract">Primary hydatid cyst swelling of neck is an uncommon occurrence even in regions where hydatidosis is common. We report a case of a 13 year old male patient who presented with a swelling in right side of neck since 4 years, which turned out to be a hydatid cyst. FNAC is a useful pre-operative investigation for diagnosis of hydatid cyst. Complete surgical excision followed by medical treatment (benzimidazole derivatives) is considered to be the treatment of choice. Hydatid cyst should always be considered in the differential diagnosis of neck swellings.</p>
