Hydatidosis, caused by Echinococcus granulosus, is still an endemic parasitic disease in the Mediterranean area, South America, North Africa, and Australia. The most common anatomic location of hydatid disease is the liver, followed by the lung. Hydatidosis is located in the bones in 0.5% to 2% of all cases. A hydatid cyst can be seen in any part of the body. However, primary hydatid cyst of the rib in childhood is exceedingly rare. We report the first case of a pediatric hydatid cyst of the rib mimicking chest wall tumor.
包虫病由细粒棘球绦虫引起，在地中海地区、南美洲、北非和澳大利亚仍然是一种地方性寄生虫病。包虫病最常见的解剖位置是肝脏，其次是肺部。0.5%至 2%的病例中包虫病位于骨骼。包虫囊肿可见于身体任何部位。然而，儿童肋骨原发性包虫囊肿极为罕见。我们报告首例儿童肋骨包虫囊肿，表现为胸壁肿瘤。
