Hydatid disease, the parasitic infestation caused by the cestode, echinococcus granulosus involves mainly the liver and the lungs though no organ is immune. Genito urinary involvement has been found mainly in the kidneys and rarely in other structures such as, bladder and epididymis. Isolated retrovesical location of the hydatid cyst is a very rare condition whose manifestations appears after a long course of the disease and are due to compression of bladder, causing the bladder out flow obstruction. Such rare case of bladder out flow obstruction is presented.
包虫病是由细粒棘球绦虫引起的寄生虫感染,主要累及肝脏和肺,不过没有哪个器官能幸免于难。泌尿生殖系统受累主要见于肾脏,很少累及其他结构,如膀胱和附睾。孤立性膀胱后包虫囊肿是一种非常罕见的情况,其症状在病程较长后出现,是由于囊肿压迫膀胱导致膀胱流出道梗阻所致。本文报告了这样一例罕见的膀胱流出道梗阻病例。
