[Rare forms of hydatid cyst. Case reports].

With a frequency still high in surgical pathology at the 2nd Surgical Clinic of the Clinical Emergency Hospital in Constanta, hydatid disease has, besides the usual hepatic and lung locations, other uncommon variants. This study presents two clinical cases with rare locations of the disease, the thigh and scapulo-humeral joint. The intraoperative images and the comments emphasize the characteristic features of these cases.
