Cardiac hydatid cyst is an uncommon disease, especially in children. The interventricular septum region is the most frequent localization. The cysts usually involve other organs making the etiologic diagnosis easier. Our young patient presented a single hydatid cyst. The etiologic diagnosis was difficult due to the negativity of the serologic tests and there were no other organs affected. Surgical ablation of the cyst was performed and histopathological analysis achieved.
心脏包虫囊肿是一种罕见疾病，尤其在儿童中。室间隔区域是最常见的发病部位。囊肿通常还累及其他器官，这使得病因诊断更容易。我们的年轻患者表现为单个包虫囊肿。由于血清学检查结果为阴性且无其他器官受累，病因诊断困难。对囊肿进行了手术切除并进行了组织病理学分析。
