Hydatid cysts occur commonly in lungs in the pediatric age group. Though medical management has been tried, definitive management of the condition is essentially surgical. Use of video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) has been rarely employed for the management of pulmonary hydatid cysts. We present a 10-year-old boy with pulmonary hydatid cysts treated with VATS-assisted minithoracotomy with hydatid cyst enucleation and capitonnage. The patient developed a lung abscess postoperatively and had to undergo lobectomy. The surgical management of pulmonary hydatid cysts is discussed here. The role of minimal access therapy for pulmonary hydatid cysts is highlighted.
包虫囊肿常见于儿童年龄组的肺部。尽管已经尝试过药物治疗，但该疾病的确定性治疗本质上是手术治疗。电视辅助胸腔镜手术（VATS）很少用于治疗肺包虫囊肿。我们报告一名10岁患有肺包虫囊肿的男孩，接受了VATS辅助小切口开胸手术，进行包虫囊肿摘除和内翻缝合。患者术后发生肺脓肿，不得不接受肺叶切除术。本文讨论了肺包虫囊肿的手术治疗。强调了微创治疗在肺包虫囊肿中的作用。
