Hydatid cyst disease most commonly affects liver and lungs, but it can affect all viscera and soft tissues of the body. Simultaneous mammary and femoral hydatid cysts, without any other visceral involvement, are extremely rare. This is a case report of 25-years-old female, presenting with lump in left breast mimicking fibroadenoma and lump in right thigh mimicking fibroma. Both turned out to be hydatid cysts.
包虫囊肿病最常累及肝脏和肺，但也可累及身体的所有内脏和软组织。同时出现乳腺和股部包虫囊肿，而无任何其他内脏受累的情况极为罕见。本文报告一例25岁女性病例，该患者表现为左侧乳房出现类似纤维腺瘤的肿块，右侧大腿出现类似纤维瘤的肿块。结果发现二者均为包虫囊肿。
